The “middle sibling” of black and white, grey is often overlooked. Associated with gloomy objects and aging, this color is making a comeback as anything but boring.

As part of the neutral family, grey goes with almost everything and changes up the basic black outfit. Not ready for a grey look head to toe? The Raconteur in grey and white stripes keeps your wardrobe up-to-date with man’s new go-to color without overdoing it. Plus, it’s 120 thread cotton cotton will be a welcome soft touch to layering for the fall.

Raconteur, which literally means “storyteller,” is the perfect shirt for memories to be made in. Whether you are jetsetting overseas or simply trying that new restaurant down the street, this shirt brings grey to the table in a traditional but subtle perfection.

Try pairing with:

• dark navy slip-on loafers,
• rolled or tapered khaki pants, and
• a navy quilted jacket that lets you explore in comfort

Finally, accessorize with a grey multi-hued silk scarf, gold plated aviators, and a grey shoulder bag for a look that is on trend yet practical.
