Since moving to my more casually dressed office, I've tried to wear pants in a variety of styles. Since I had the navy suit, today I figured I'd wear just the pants, a dark pink striped shirt and my suede wingtips. For some reason, I felt that the pants and suede didn't really go together, it didn't feel right. Is this pairing a mistake or was it just because I used suit pants?

What are you doing wearing pinstripe trousers in a business causua environment? There's nothing wrong with teaming navy pants with brown suede shoes but, again, what are you doing wearing pinstripe trousers in a business casual environment? Brown suede shoes look GREAT with EVERYTHING.

Aren't brogues country shoes to begin with?
