Grey or gray? Providing a framework for colour

One day, if this blog ever had any more readers than Grey Fox himself and his nearest and dearest, the question will be asked by a reader from across the Pond whether Grey Fox can spell.  Firstly, I would welcome any such readers.  I would then say that grey is how we spell the word over here in the Old Country, so I am sticking with it.

But grey is a very useful colour for a man seeking fashion and style in middle age.  It goes with, and provides a framework for, brighter colours.  Traditionally we wear a grey suit and coloured shirt, rather than vice versa, and this traditional approach is one I favour to feel comfortable.

I love grey tweed.  As a classic it can be worn at any age; we cannot see the age of the men wearing these jackets, but the effect is the same whatever the age of the wearer - calm good taste.
