Navy blue, two-button, single vent, moderate lapels, gold buttons. Look at Brooks Brothers or Ralph Lauren Polo web sites for inspiration. If there is a Polo outlet near you, look for the Polo University Club label. Buy nothing that has polyester in the fabric. You want wool.

Buy a pair of wool gray slacks and a pair of well-made 100% cotton khaki slacks. Wear black dress shoes and belt with the grays. Wear brown loafers and brown belt with the khakis. White or blue shirt with either a button-down or spread collar will work with both pants. Select a rep or discreet polka-dot tie for each outfit and you are set for most situations.

Cheers, RS
