OK that is definitely not a black suit. In any case, you should not wear black suits outside of truly formal occasions or funerals. Charcoal/navy work much better, and both of those work perfectly fine with black shoes. Don't know why you're ragging on him for blue suit/black shoes.

I think dark brown shoes don't work very well unless you're older/in a super professional setting, but a lighter brown, walnut, cognac, etc. brown would work just fine.

They're not as much rules as a general guideline to what's aesthetically pleasing.

In western europe you don't wear navy outside of very formal occasions.


Whaaaaat I'm like 95pct sure that's not true.


I'm pretty sure that's not true either. In any formal situation a navy suit would be fine. I've worn my navy suit to graduation ceremonies, weddings and even job interviews (without the tie though).

Very formal for me would mean black tie or something.

great for most occasions; black tends to be for the more formal end of occasions, but blue is good for everything from dates and just wearing to work to interviews.

ID double revoked.


Actually, Men's warehouse is currently having a sale on suits (Buy 1, Get 1 Free), and there's actually a very nice looking blue suit on clearance.

http://www.menswearhouse.com/mens-suits/slim-fit-extra-trim-suits/tommy-hilfiger-blue-multistripe-slim-fit-suit-347G348G46#

Considering getting it and another one. Maybe something gray, or a better fitted black suit (I still have that old black suit which has been getting rather tight around the shoulders).

Black suits are fine, but you need to be 100% sure you're not going to sweat and constant vigilance with the delinting thing.

But yea, Grey/Navy/Charcoal are probably better.

Lint rollers! White dog hair is annoying otherwise.

For most use.

I generally need to break out the suit for conferences Im helping logistics with and IR events and what-not, so a black suit is more necessary for me.

I really do need to check it out in store, but ugh, only 1.5 hours till my local one closes and the sale ends, and I kinda just want to order online...hrrrrrm

fuck it, I'll see if my dad wants a suit too and we can split the cost

Or I wait for the next sale. Yeah, too lazy right now.

You can wear whatever but in european fashion black/navy shouldn't be used at weddings or graduations. Its become more common with Americanization of pleb fashion but its frowned upon in good taste fashion. Black/white tie should exclusively at funerals.

Wore navy to prom.
Wore navy to formals.
Black to my interview.

Its a shame the navy suit jacket doesn't fit any more. I suppose I could have it altered to fit my shoulders again.

?

Your original statement was "you don't wear navy outside of very formal occasions," and I would define "very formal occasions" as funerals, black tie events, etc. So you're saying you can't wear navy to interviews, casual outings, etc, which is what confused me. Your second post seems to contradict it...?

I have a black suit, and a second coat (grey) that I can use when I don't want to have a black suit, but no matching pants for the grey coat.

Does this make me too pedestrian for Cheep and LT?

I wonder if I'm very behind in fashion or does it simply not apply here yet, because when I was buying my first suit everyone told me to get a plain black one.
Americans don't like to use unblockables, it is considered not honest. You press a button at the wrong time and hit the other person, you are random, not a top player. You DP Sim's far fierce, it is random and not honest.

Depends when you are from really. Here the black suit(although not really plain black but I don't know what word) is standard for any formal thing. Navy is fine too. The States is prob rather different than that.

Anyone else find it interesting that, as Yango has toned down the size of his posts a lot, that Moonbear and Cheep have combined to become the new Yango, AKA the encyclopedia of infinite knowledge?
