don't know if I would qualify to hang w/the "queer eye" guys...but I am queer...here's my thoughts (for what it is worth)
you have cordovan with navy trousers...Brooks does make a "maroon" saddle for blue bikes.
but, tan belt w/brown slacks is fine...honey saddle w/brown bike--not the brown saddle with brown bike.
although, brown is the "New black": so that could go on most bikes (not the brown)
black, of course, goes with everything...plus it is thinning!

o.k. now I am just getting silly...I need to get back to studying...
