Green: Means “Go” Update Your Work Look

This week, we’re talking about the power of green. When you “give the green light” on a project at work, you’re moving forward. Look the part with some fresh updates in your work wardrobe. Green is modern and masculine, especially in the deeper greens and olives that are so suitable to work wear. Whether its a casual olive pair of pants, a plaid sport coat with shades of green in it, or a dapper green tie to tie back to a charcoal colored suit, there are a lot of great ways to give a little modern pop to your outfits this fall.
Let us know what you think in the comments below. Check back tomorrow for the best green options for after 5, and Thursday for casual picks. Whatever the occasion, we’ve got you covered.

This sage, blue and brown Harris Tweed houndstooth sport coat from Brooks Brothers is a really versatile office jacket. And an ideal way to subtly add green to your wardrobe. In their Fitzgerald model, it has narrower lapels and a modern - but not too trim - fit. The color combination and pattern make it an easy match to charcoal or olive wool pants, khaki’s and dark wash jeans. If it’s a formal day, add a solid blue dress shirt and green, navy, brown or rust tie. If no tie is required, wear a blue, brown or green sweater. Add a dark brown suede oxford shoe or chukka boot and you are all set.

An olive pair of dress pants is a great alternative to our basic charcoal and navy pants – and just as adaptable. This Santorelli pair is made of high end Italian serge wool in a classic fit that will be in your wardrobe for years to come. (In case you’re wondering, serge just means the fabric is woven to have very subtle diagonal lines in it.) The dark olive color will work with your brown and olive tweed sport coats and navy or charcoal sweaters.

As the weather continues to cool down, corduroy pants are perfect for a casual office day – a little dressier than denim, but just as comfortable. The deep forest green color of these AG Jeans, reads almost neutral, and looks great with a navy cashmere sweater. The Matchbox has a straight narrower leg, but is comfortable in the waist and thigh – especially since the fabric has some great stretch to it. It is a really nice fit for guys looking for an updated silhouette.

A work coat doesn’t need to only be black. This loden green felted wool top coat is a contemporary fit in a modern (somewhat shorter) 37-inch length that works over your grey, brown, or olive suit jacket or sport coat as easily as it does over a sweater with wool pants or jeans. This Harris Warf coat has an ideal English feel – that’s where it’s made, and they like to reflect that fashion direction - with a notch collar and stylishly classic double-breasted closure that is so popular again.
