Trend Watch – Plum and Blue Chino’s

Over the last few years the classic chino has made a spectacular come back, which is a great thing, as it means generally smarter dressed men. However this summer there have been two colours in particular that have really come to fruition. Bright blue and plum coloured chinos are the colours to be seen in. Not only do they suit most men, but they can be worn with both casual and smart attire, and they look as good in the summer as they do in the winter.
