As I hope you know by now. Black suits should only be worn at funerals or if you're a waiter or limo driver. Black suits have no place in the corporate/business world.  I know a lot of guys wear them but that does not make it right.  For years, blue and grey suits have been part of the business dress code but a new suit is making in ways into the closets of business professionals and that suit brown.  Just like blue and grey, brown goes with everything and can be worn in every occasion.  It goes with any skin color and can be worn in any season.   A brown suit says to everyone "I own more than 2 suits."

As I mentioned before, I am trying to mix different patterns and this outfit shows that  if done correctly and tastefully you can pair just about any two patterns together and in this case three. Just remember, pocket squares and colorful patterned socks are made for showing off and being fun so let them do whatever they damn well please!
