Men in Blue 


Blue is a very classic color.  It's not quite black (absent of color) yet it is not garish like green.  It is a masculine color which can dress you for the trading floor or the dance floor.  


The color blue -- ideally navy -- is a staple in every gentleman's wardrobe.   The wardrobe should include at least one pair of perfectly fitting jeans, a blue sport coat, light blue button down shirts, a navy V-neck, and blue chino trousers.




"You will only have three pairs of jeans.  For the job, two pairs of jeans which are trim and dark.  For the home, a pair broader, and more worn.  Beyond this is superfluous."
