Got a light colored, summer suit you’re looking forward to wearing in the coming months? Be prepared that this is how your day is gonna sound if you wear it…

9:45:02 – “I was thinking the same thing. Nice Suit!”

Bottom line: If you’re an introvert or a sometimes introvert, a light colored summer suit might garner attention. And even if it’s positive attention, attention is still attention. Be warned if that’s not what you’re after on a particular day.

Shown at top: Banana Republic Core Temp Jacket & Pants in Stone ($208.20 for both pieces when 40% off). Now, for whatever reason, BR doesn’t currently carry both pieces in “stone.” The jacket is “stone,” but the pants are “bahama sand.” I don’t know if this current run of pants and jackets match. Mine did. Yours might not. Size is a 42R jacket, 34×30 slim pant on 5’10” / 200lbs. Chukkas are the Allen Edmonds x Massdrop Chukka in Snuff Suede.
