Suiting up gets colourful!

Ok, so the “winter is coming” memes, jokes and puns can finally stop because baby, it’s cold outside. Brrr… With the temps dropping faster than Adele’s Hello, it’s time to rethink your sartorial game. We’re not saying ditch the timeless blue, black and grey suits (classics are classics), but Skittle-coloured suits are always a welcome treat. And don’t we all like to indulge?

So red hot!

Sharply dressed men- can’t be resisted- especially ones dressed in red suits. Brick red, crimson red, scarlet or if you’re really into trends- a nod to marsala would work too. Red suits might seem a little too flamboyant, but after crushing on these dapper men’s style, we think not. Or they just have a knack of looking effortless. We love the understated look of the dark red suit partnered with a white shirt and complementing tie. Easy and effortless eh? Or if you’re willing to take it a notch higher, ditch the classic oxford shirt and opt for a club collar shirt with a waistcoat and striped tie for a preppy look. Or, just ditch all the norms and layer it over a printed shirt for an urbane look that’s anything but boring.

Oh hello, yellow!

Leagues away from Jim Carrey’s suit in the Mask, the yellow suit has now found a place in the fashionisto’s wardrobe. Cheerful, bright and statement-making, the yellow suit is a perfect way to liven up gloomy days and winter spells. Apart from the fact, that you’d probably be a walking beacon, the yellow suit IS a welcome ray of style. And you don’t necessarily have to be Bumblebee yellow, instead you could opt for muter hues like ochre and butter yellow. Surprising as it is, we love how yellow paired with navy looks- unique, right? #worthatry

Green with envy, much?

We promise you won’t blend in with the Christmas tree or be mistaken for one of the elves! *cross our hearts* Think more like jewel-toned greens- dark, mysterious and sophisticated. Not sure how to wear it? Follow the simple rule of a white shirt and brown shoes, or if you’re ready to experiment a little, then that floral shirt that you’ve been itching to wear all winter- now’s the time to wear it! Just don’t do checks- you’d definitely look part of the lumberjack entourage. Once you’ve mastered that, then you could try mixing and matching it with other green ensembles, like a sweater or a shirt. Try!

Purple and prejudice!

Hate Barney (who doesn’t), hate purple? Hmm… The colour of royalty, purple, is often considered a little effeminate. Do we care? Not at all. One of this year’s trending Pantone colours, Amethyst Orchid, purple has a way of making a debonair statement. Contrary to popular belief, purple can actually be paired with a plethora of hues, from navy, grey, greens to yellows. Take a cue from these dapper gents, and mix and match your blazers with tonal trousers to work a sharp statement.

Blue, it’s electrifying!

Yup, you probably already have a blue suit, but do you have an electrifying blue suit? Not your classic, but brighter blues are big this season- says half the men at this year’s Pitti Uomo! Traditional with a twist, azure, lapis and cobalt blues are a perfect way to work a dapper look to your 9 to 5 without looking OTT. How you decide to style it, depends on how bold of a statement you want to strike. From pairing it with a classic white shirt to a pop of neon, the blue suit is versatile and fashion forward, all at once.

What’s your take on coloured suits? And what colour would you pick?
