    Brown shoes with navy trousers has been on trend for 15 years now. It’s become the default choice for business. Uniformed services will still require black. And a blue shoe with black trousers? WTF?

        I think I would skip this chart all together. Apparently pants shoes colors are not transitive.

    I really miss mfa and guides like this one. They made it easy to look like everyone else and gave a reason to look doen on people without a dimple in their tie or oddly coloured socks.

    I stopped caring and just wear ehat I like. I look great.

      I used to worry about my work attire a lot, but then got a job where we all wear uniforms and it’s honestly great. Makes getting ready in the morning so much easier. I also goty work shirts for free from the company, so I only had to get khakis and better work shoes (the ones I had weren’t suitable for the new job). We all wear fun socks, but it’s more of a bonding thing when we show each other the wacky designs lmao.

      10/10 would recommend uniforms for work. Completely eliminates any drama associated with clothing.

          I hated the uniforms at first, but then my mom was talking about all of the dress code drama at her workplace (my previous employer) and I realized that I didn’t, and still don’t, miss that shit

      Is that what this is saying? This seems even more confusing to me, they have both blue and navy and two different shades so I’m assuming they mean different blues. And even more confusing navy shoes go with a brown suit, but brown shoes don’t go with navy?!

    It’s really simple and you dont need a chart: The shoe should be darker than the pants.

    Meanwhile, me: black, black, black, black. I only own one pair of “nice” (read: class divide) shoes and one suit - specifically for weddings and funerals.

    I thought khaki looked different, but wiki says it’s because

    In British English and some other Commonwealth usage, khaki may also refer to a shade of green known as olive drab
