Welcome to the first installment of my men's fashion posts. I toyed around with inventing a name for this sub-section of my blog. Something reminiscent of Sprinkles & Champagne, but more testosterone-infused. Cufflinks & Bourbon. Pocket squares & Scotch. I dunno. It's a work in progress. Any good ideas? Feel free to share.
Nevertheless, I thought I'd start with the basics. Man Style 101. The perfect first suit. 'Cause guess what, fellas? Many of you are doing it wrong. Sorry to break it to you.
First things first, a first suit should not be black. It shouldn't be brown. It probably shouldn't even be grey. For your first suit? You want navy. Check out the infographic from the Huffington Post below...
A good navy suit is appropriate for business, not overly dressy, and super versatile. You can pair it with almost anything. For shoes and belt...black, brown, or cognac would all work. For shirt and tie...the sky is the limit. :)
Check out the image below. A classic navy suit done right with cognac accessories. Muy caliente!
You can wear the pieces together, sure. But the blazer and pants are just as useful as seperates. It's like three outfit options in one.

Okay fellas, navy or bust!
