Look you lot - he's gone. He's already on his way there - wearing a blue suit (see Post No 1).
No waistcoat goes with a blue suit. OK?

Re: Urgent Advice please
Fascinating advice.
I agree with Bahtat a lot. But also meow and KC.
Interesting.
I wore a blue tailor made slim fit suit. Tan brown shoes. White TM Lewin shirt, grey with ivory large dot Paul smith tie, white pocket square. Not pointed but rounded casually.
I looked ****ing incredible.
Advice was read and noted. Appreciate it all.
Cue onslaught for:
- labels
- brown shoes
- being jealous that you can't pull it off.

Depends...... Light Brown? Dark Brown? Tan?

Never heard that rule?
Lots of people don't like brown / blue combo and wear black shoes with a blue suit; personally I don't like that.
Mine were tan. Ideally I'd have worn my favorite dark brown brogues but I've word the soles through (apparently turnin up at a wedding with a hole in a shoe isn't acceptable...)

Re: Urgent Advice please
Hmm, I do not mind tan shoes with a blue suit, especially when worn with a white shirt, as all those colours are harmonious. BUT, putting gray in the mix is, IMHO, not a good idea. Gray is fine with blue and white but not with tan. So, in this case, black shoes would have been better.
