Navy, Grey and Brown, a Classic Work Combination.

Navy ME&EM tapered trousers, Tobacco wool jumper, silver backless loafers, grey dune bucket bag | Workwear over 40.

Navy and Brown is a classic combination.

Navy and Brown is a classic combination isn't it?

Navy Gent's Suit + Brown Brogues.

Navy Wool Dress + Brown Leather Belt.

Navy Coat + Tan Knee Boots.

Timeless and so Easy.

{See some Navy and Brown outfits HERE, HERE and HERE... not so "classic" in style but still using the colour combination.}

BUT...

Sometimes the 'classics' can feel a bit boring, can't they?

We can get tired of the same-old, same-old.

Luckily, just the tiniest of tweaks can make your old combinations (and old clothes) seem fresh and updated.

Phew!

This jumper (and trousers) are certainly "Knocking on a bit".

In fact, this jumper is so old that it is bobbling quite badly and my de-fuzzer won't work on it anymore.

I'm afraid it has been shaved so many times it's about to disintegrate.

A strong gust of wind and I'll be wearing shreds!

However, bobbles aside, this jumper is such a versatile item and I still love it!
So, if you have ANY de-bobbling ideas and tricks PLEASE share them.
I would be so grateful!
Or, please break it to me gently if this jumper has had it's day 😢.

{I've tried a wool comb, electric de-fuzzer and even a bic razor!}

Silver Velvet Backless Loafers to the Rescue.

This Navy trouser/Brown jumper combination was calling out for something extra to lift it out of the doldrums.
So these silver velvet backless loafers came to the rescue!
{I can't seem to see past them these days... see them styled HERE.}

Like slippers, they are so comfortable and just happen to be "on trend".
A trend that is (reasonably) practical and wearable?
Result!
