Peter Millar overlays a blue plaid on a charcoal grey base for a stunning suit that will allow you to fit in at the office, as easily as you will at a business function, or a formal event. The subtle plaid lends itself to many shirt and tie combinations. In addition to solid dress shirts, try a blue stripe or pattern with a solid or spaced patterned tie.

Robert Talbott - Carmel Jacket
X
A dark plaid sport coat can be just the right look for a special evening at an upscale restaurant. This wool/cashmere jacket from Robert Talbott has that elegant feel that will fit right in. Wear it with grey wool dress pants, a solid white or blue shirt and a solid tie. If you’re feeling bold, you can definitely opt for a large-scale pattern tie that uses some of the colors in the sport coat, like they’ve done in this image with the gold/taupe in the paisley pattern.

BOSS Hugo Boss - Sharp Flat Front Check Wool Trousers
X
These contemporary fit wool mini-check pants from Hugo Boss show how a subtle pattern can add just a bit of dashing to a pair of wool dress pants. And who doesn’t want that? (Click through the “shop it” button to get a closer look and really see the design.) This is an easy accompaniment for a dressy patterned shirt for the office that also takes you right into evening. Don’t let the small pattern of these pants confuse you. It works well with most pattern shirts because it’s so subtle. And, of course, any solid shirt is a no-brainer. When the weather cools down, add a solid cashmere V-neck sweater for a finished look. These pants also come in charcoal – both equally versatile options for your wardrobe.

Canali - Micro Checked Dress Shirt
X
The greyish-mustard color combination in this small check pattern is sure to add just the right amount of pop to your favorite navy, brown or dark grey suit - or sport coat. It reads like color, but this Canali shirt is really just a combination of strong neutrals, so it works with a muted solid or bolder patterned tie. Leave it to Canali to create such a unique and timeless color combination, in such an exquisite fabric. That is why they have always been one of our favorite Italian manufacturers.

Billy Reid - John T Check Woven Shirt

Another favorite of ours is this one from Billy Reid. The rust/grey color combination of this contemporary fitting sport shirt has a rugged edge, using a rust and grey color combination. It’s the perfect masculine color combination for your dark wash jeans, and your black or grey cotton twill pants.

Bugatchi - Regular Fit Gingham Sport Shirt

Looking for a dark check shirt for a night out that is not so trim fitting? This is our favorite, from Bugatchi. It looks great with dark denim, and the contrast interior trim on the collar and cuff create a polished finish.
