    Random story:

    So I was making my first inspiration board the other night and was trying to find menswear pictures.  We are planning on tan suits with blue ties.  Two, maybe three hours later I show him the board (with the menswear pic).  He says "Why didn't you find one with a tan suit and blue tie?"  The actual pic was tan with a white tie.  Like I hadn't searched dozens of pages on google images and every other place I could think of until the tendons in my hand were flaming and my eyes were drier than the Sahara to find a tan suit and blue tie.

    They just don't understand...

    Too funny!  I hope you said "great idea" before hitting him over the head with the closest bridal magazine.

    Mens Tan Suit

    Mens tan suit will never really go out of style because it is a neutral, and, any age man can look great in tan suit. Mans tan suit is good for spring, summer and early fall, never wear it in the winter especially in colder climates. With the blue and black suits you need to wear the black belt & shoes and with the brown and tan suits, wear the brown or burgundy belt & shoes. Brown shoes work with tan suits, as well as some shades of navy and black. When wearing tan suits, choose socks that match your shoe color. Always contrast your socks and your shoes to some extent with any color suit, other than pure black. Mens Tan suits are always a great alternative for events or parties that are not so formal. However, if it says black tie, always go for darker - black or navy and smart it up with a great colorful shirt or a neutral shirt and a colorful tie.

    Oh boys! At least he was paying attention, that's excellent! Mr. KM won't pay attention to those kind of details at all cause he just doesn't care about them.
