Picked RIGHT SHOES TO SUIT
The classic version - black shoes and black suit works great if you have a single suit, and no other pair of shoes. However, if you have, say, gray and blue suit, then there is need to pick up some colorful shoes than just black classic shoes.
In this article we answer the question, what kind of shoes fit under the blue or dark blue suit; how to pick shoes to suit light gray or dark gray, brown or classic black.
Below is a diagram that you can navigate with a combination of colored business suit and a pair of men's shoes.
It is a reliable reference point, if you adhere to the business dress code and formal style. However, whether these rules dogma? Not really.
If you have a space for self-expression, who said that the red or maroon loafers do not fit the blue suit? =) Any rules can be ignored if you have a taste and sense of style.
But back to business etiquette and formal dress code. In fact, choose a classic suit gray or dark blue is not difficult. Buy conventional black shoes, and the trick is done. But modern office dress code is less strict and more often it is possible to pick up shoes skin colors other than the standard black. By the way, I remind you that the belt should be the same color as the shoes. Do not forget about it.
So, I propose to analyze separately each color costume:
Blue Suit
Suitable color shoes:
Black shoes;
Brown shoes;
Burgundy-colored shoes.
Dark blue suit perfectly with the two classic colors of leather shoes: black and brown. More extravagant colors - maroon or burgundy color, good contrast and give you allot of the crowds.
Skin color of shoes, mainly affects the dress code, which you practice. Black - a strict dress code, brown - less strict dress code, maroon - informal dress code.
Dark gray suit
Color Shine:
Black shoes;
Brown shoes;
Burgundy-colored shoes.
Dark gray suit may be called less stringent than the dark-blue suit, so will slightly expand the palette of colors. Virtually any leather shoe fits, if the color is combined with gray. For example, white shoes, blue shoes, purple shoes and so on. Main maintain this color other elements of the male wardrobe: shirt, tie, socks ... but the main belt!
Dark gray suit is very good to wear in the office, where there seems to be a dress code, but you can be diluted with a little image and move away from the standard brown or black. If you like to dress in the style of smart casual or business casual, something to color shoes perfect shirt or tie with any print, not just single color.
Dark gray suit
Suitable color shoes:
Black shoes;
Burgundy-colored shoes.
Not suitable color shoes:
Brown shoes.
Brown shoes do not fit in dark gray (coal) color suit? Yes exactly! Other rules are comparable to the combination of a light-gray suit. I will not repeat.
Brown Suit
Suitable color shoes:
Brown shoes;
Burgundy-colored shoes.
Not suitable color shoes:
Black shoes.
The combination of the classic suit and brown shoes brown leather there is a caveat. It is necessary that shades suit and shoes still different, otherwise it will not look very harmonious. Even better, if you will pick up shoes darker than your suit.
Black suit
Suitable color shoes:
Black shoes.
Not suitable color shoes:
Brown shoes;
Burgundy-colored shoes.
Classic black suit does not tolerate compromise. It is therefore recommended to buy a dark blue or dark gray suit first. Under the classic black suit fit only classic black shoes. Any other color of shoes will look ridiculous. Besides wearing a black suit made or a funeral, or a very solemn event, where other shoes but strict black will not look the way.
Other colors costumes
When we talk about business dress code, the more voiced above colors are not an issue. Everything is quite conservative. Another thing, if you dress in the style of smart casual or business casual or even casual, where there are no strict rules and frameworks, both in the classics.
More casual wear - fewer rules, so try to choose the color combinations that you think appropriate, just by looking in the mirror. By the way, we have prepared an entire article about how to combine the colors of the clothes, I recommend to read.
Remember that some of the colors to each other do not mix, so do not turn themselves in colorful scarecrow. Experiment with the contrast, hue suit and shoes, not forgetting the various accessories to complement the image, texture and color combined with the overall "background". Primarily selected suit, shirt is then selected, then all classical shoes and other accessories, including a tie.
