Despite the heaps of Spring/Summer 2023 glamor pouring off New York Fashion Week runways, we’ve still got Fall 2022 on the brain–especially how we plan to style it. Of course, we’re keeping to the basics for the transitional season. Think: neutral trench coats, supple leather boots, lightweight layers, and a modest introduction to the cable knits and cashmere sections of our wardrobes. But this year most of all, we’re also hopping aboard the co-ord suit train–and our very own Something Navy suiting staples are the ticket to ride.

From stand-alone oversized blazers to three-piece sets, from do-it-all neutrals to statement plaid prints, we’re gearing up for what’s arguably the year’s most stylish season–thanks, of course, to these classic suit looks. Snag a peek into our suit edit below, and enjoy the looks this season and beyond.

An Evening Out

Be it for date night or après-office sips with the girls, a classic black co-ord moment is always a good idea. Our styling tip? Style our Melange Black Suit atop a figure-flattering corset and glam up with color-popping accessories and drop earrings that’ll sparkle in even the dimmest of NYC cocktail bars. 

Nine-To-Five 

If you’re anything like us, your office-appropriate wardrobe could always use a touch-up. Lucky for you, your wardrobe revamp is just a click away. Said revamp, you ask? Our very own Plaid Suit comes style-ready with a cropped blazer and an elongated pant leg hem. Our rec? Button yours shut and ground the look with a ballet flat and timeless gold-tone jewels. A quick closet pick means you’ll never be short on time again. 

Cool and Casual

Blazers and pleats were meant for more than just high-profile affairs and sparkly accessories. Whether you’re headed on your morning coffee run or frolicking around SoHo, chances are you’ll need something pared-back and painless to style–and a suit is a chic solution. Cue our Melange Charcoal Suit, which looks painfully cool with a basic hoodie and your favorite sneaks–although anything comfortable and intentionally loose-fitted should do the trick just fine. Top off your look with a sporty cap and you’re destined to be the coolest dressed on the block. 

The Classics

When talking classics, it’s no wonder a tailored suit will always be a conversation piece. Case in point is our very own Classic Suit in an army green stain, which is destined to be all the talk wherever you go. Style your vest and trousers with a no-nonsense sandal, chic sunnies, and an oversized canvas tote for virtually anything on your daytime calendar. 

For Anything and Everything

And by everything, we mean everything. If you’re craving a chic monochromatic moment, style all three pieces together with your favorite do-it-all crossbody bag and a sneaker to fit the occasion. However, if you’re craving a blazer-pants look, grab your favorite cotton tee and waist-trimming belt. Catch a glimpse of our take below.
