Thanks for the suggestions guys. I would have to agree that pleated pants do look baggy on me. What I wore to church this pass Sunday. Had to forgo the tie and go with a more casual look.

You know it!

Try some Indian icecream for dessert next time you visit a restaurant, comes in cool flavours such as pistacio, rosewater, saffron, mango and cardamom. My favourite.

In my experience (and i'm sure this can be disputed) those color spectators go very well with lighter colored pants - which is why seersucker, linen, tans and browns are always a good match. i'd have gone with a bone/cream or tan pair of pants, but then that would have thrown off the colors up top. Try it out with some colors in the light brown or light blue family and lets see how it comes out.


Thanks Nii -

Ill play around with some other colors, I just find these a hard match.

Where are you going thats cold??

Now, question - you are wearing light specs with a navy pant and it works there. How come when I wore them with a (not so different shade of ) navy yesterday it was awkward? Because I had a SC not a suit? Yours are true white and caramel, right? Mine are a beige canvas and cream leather. Just curious really - as I said, Ive never had specs and am unsure of the matching/combining.

Honestly I think they look a little off. Too much pop without enough to counter it above the waist.

I knew a lady who worked as a hostess at an Indian restaurant. One of her responsibilities was chopping the nuts for the special Indian ice cream. She chuckled that it sold quite well, even though it was regular vanilla ice cream bought from the nearby supermarket. But hey, the nuts made it exotic.
