Suit
Colour: When it comes to suiting up for work, keep your whites and bright colours hidden in your closet; or save them for your gym session, and instead look for a darker colour that is masculine and alluring yet less boring than black. Colour such as Navy blue is unmistakably great, in which is trendy and ideal to accessorise.
Design and Material: Suits have a wide selection of designs, materials and features, which cater to our excruciatingly demanding personal taste. A loose suit is never an option; suits should accentuate your body neatly. Marks and Spencer’s performance suits in slim fitting are a great choice, these water repellant and stain resistant set of clothes are fashionably attractive, and there are no crumples to worry about, which keeps your elegance tacked throughout the day.
Bag
In the spirit of combining traditional apparel with modern aesthetics, compliment your overall look with my personal fashion favourite, a modern messenger bag. Cross-over messenger bags offer style and utility for men. You can rock this brown synthetic leather bag with formal wear and still look professional. It looks elegant from every angle; a must have indeed.
Shoes
Shoes are the type of accessories that could make or break the entire look. It goes without saying that black leather shoes are as formal as suits can be. But you are not looking forward to look ‘formal’ only; you want ‘chic’. Brown leather shoes are the way to go, the colour goes stylishly with any suits, and with Navy blue; it’s a glamorous match. This double monk-strap, block-heeled, sleek ankle boots offer a flawless strut down the streets.
Tie
Although fashion is taking the tie-less approach on fashion runways recently, a tie is still an accessory that adds a classic touch that compliments the entire look. Similar to shirts; stay away from flashy bright colours and cartoonish prints and opt for more subtle ones with interesting textures.
Shirt
Dark suits go well with lighter shirts, and vice versa, match your Navy blue suit with a lighter shade of blue button-up shirt. Try and avoid heavy textured shirts with too many lines and prints, keep it simple and classy.
Watch
A look isn’t complete without a stunningly smart watch. Look for a watch that screams ‘professional’. Prestigious watches are essential accessories for a gentleman with a bold attitude; Seiko watches are one of the options that highlight your look with classiness. This particular look is paired with sharply-designed Astron GPS Solar in Navy blue colour, with its cutting-edge technology and high-end features, it truly define a true gentleman.
