Now this is my crack.
Those that know me a bit better know that food, flavours and spices are a tremendous passion of mine. And these, from the inspirational Jay Kos' website, look as good as any. But that is not all.
Look at those colours!
When it comes to aesthetics, I often find nature a source of great inspiration. Just like these spices (nutmeg, sumak-or is that clove?-, laurel, pepper, etc.) go so well together, just try and imagine these colours into an outfit:
The nutmeg into a wonderful suit, perhaps cotton (I'm dreaming 4x6 double breasted here). A salt-white shirt. Paired with a warm orangy, tie with those dark brown-red sumac stripes. Let's say, in cashmere. The socks can be green like the laurel, or even better: chilly-red. Sumac for the shoes again. Or chocolate. The choice of pocket-square, I'll leave up to you.

Then again, the variations are endless.
Next time you're looking for inspiration, look at nature.
