Wow, what a gorgeous dark brown suit — simple, elegant, yet with enough details that it's memorable and clearly not just your run-of-the-mill suit. We lurve the slightly up-turned collar and, as always, we love the touch of spandex in with the wool. Alas, such beauty (from Armani Collezioni!) is not cheap — the jacket is available for $1,260 from Bergdorf's; pants are $595.
