Went with a blend of earth tones and a mixture of patterns. I’ve posted about this before. Some guys are reticent to mix patterns. If someone is kind of new to the Classic Timeless Menswear game that can be very wise. Once one knows the tricks however, mixing patterns adds a lot of depth to an outfit. The tricks are the way a pattern reads from a distance and the size of the patterns. This outfit has a ghosted Glen plaid in the suit (which reads solid) coupled with a distinct blue windowpane shirt pattern. I added a large and broad patterned foulard tie. Even though the tie has a woven black and teal houndstooth as a base-it reads as a solid from a reasonable distance because of its deep colors. The teal and burgandy and beige woven “flower” pattern harmonize with the charcoal brown suit and when coupled with the white with blue shirt, the overall outfit replicates more of natures’s pallet: Think green evergreens against a blue sky with white clouds.
