Fresh and trendy navy blue look
Men usually don't have the skills to match up colours. That's why they tend to choose universal black and neutral shades of grey. In spite of appearances, black isn't as universal as it may seem. In the colour palette, there is another colour that fits to everything. It's navy blue – elegant, universal, neutral, practical and safe.
Navy blue can make a good impression in every styling. It's becoming more and more popular, but it's quite easy to create with it a fresh and expressive look in every style.
Navy blue in smart-casual style
A strict dress code applies only in certain businesses. It's worth wearing a men's suit and a tie on special events, such as a business meeting, a job interview or if you work in a bank or a corporation. The perfect men's suit can go in grey or graphite. However, navy blue is seen by many people as the best one. It matches every skin complexion and hair colour. All you have to do is to choose a proper shade.
If you decide on a navy blue suit, you don't have to resign from your own style. An original long sleeve shirt in a unique colour can turn out to be really eye-catching. You may also boost up the styling by a colourful tie or a patterned pocket square. Finally, when choosing a suit, don't limit yourself to plain, navy blue fabrics. What about the idea of a navy blue herringbone men's suit? Or a checked one? Less formal, yet very elegant. Complete your look with a white shirt, a tie or brown leather shoes and there is your fantastic look!
You can replace your suit with a suit jacket on less formal occassions. It's a great option for matching with chino trousers. A navy blue casual suit jacket is a good base for many stylings. It can create a universal look with beige chino trousers. It beautifully matches white, red, green, yellow, sky blue, grey or even orange trousers. Add a casual shirt and comfortable moccasins or boots.
Navy blue for every day – how to use it?
Navy blue is an amazing colour not only for gentlemen. Don't hesitate to introduce it also to everyday, sporty and street stylings. Let's be honest, your wardrobe can't go without a pair of classic navy blue jeans. It's also good to equip it with a minimalistic navy blue V-neck T-shirt, a classic jumper and a longsleeve. Such a navy blue top looks great with jeans, chino trousers or multicolour cargo trousers. Try out the combination of navy blue and camo pattern.
The fans of monochromatic sets will like total navy blue outfits. A single-coloured styling can be vivided by red or white shoes. There is one more fantastic proposition: black men's shirt + black chino trousers with a navy blue blazer.
The mix of navy blue and check can make an outfit for a less formal occassion. A navy blue pair of jeans and a checked shirt is a universal duet. Moreover, when matched with a navy blue jacket, you will always make a great impression. In autumn and winter, feel free to replace a lightweight or a husky jacket with a vest. Trendsetters and stylists have already fallen in love with such a sporty option.
Tracksuit, sweatshirt, sweatpants – sporty navy blue colour
Think about the navy blue models while choosing a hoodie and sweatpants. They are expressive, they visually slender the silhouette and match well with other colours. You can wear a navy blue sweatshirt with camo trousers or a white T-shirt and brown sweatpants. Navy blue also nicely underlines the decorations and prints. Use it as an element of outerwear. A navy blue bomber jacket or a men's vest fit perfectly to sporty sets giving them a pinch of elegance.
Summer navy blue
Just like black, navy blue can turn out a bit problematic in summer. But don't even consider resigning from it completely. If you want to create a navy blue total look in summer, you can go with an airy T-shirt and cotton shorts. And how about a sailor outfit? Usually it all comes to navy blue or white shorts, a red striped polo shirt and a light cardigan which you can throw on the shoulders.
