Hi everyone

I bought 2 SCs from Corneliani last year, one a chocolate brown and another a charcoal grey. I am looking for suggestion of trousers to pair with these 2 SCs. Suggestions regarding shirts and ties to pair are also welcome.

Due to the dark colour of the SC I have not been able to take good photographs. So I have put up photos of Pal Zileri SCs from tooklookbook.com which are very similar in color.

Thanks for your help

1. For the gray one, i'd go with light grey pants, tan pants or khakis.

2. For the chocolate one, i'd go with tan, khaki pants. If you are in a daring mood, you could go with a burnt orange, apricot etc.

Since they are both solid colored, you can def throw in some patterns to your pants (herringbone, windowpane etc).

the WAYWN thread would have a lot of ideas, if you browse through it.

Brown and blue are a wonderful combination. You could pair the brown coat with charcoal flannels or even navy flannels, a light blue shirt and solid navy tie or navy/brown small patterned tie.
Or be more dramatic and wear charcoal flannels, a white shirt and a deep brown tie.
Grey is a bit tougher but would look good with lighter grey flannels, a white shirt and a grey solid or grey stripe wool or cashmere tie. Pale blue or even light pink shirt with burgundy solid or small patterned tie should also work. Shoes in cordovan would be good with the latter. With the former shoes should be brown I think, maybe chestnut. For the brown jacket I'd wear chocolate suede shoes.
