Ties render a classy and a formal appearance to your attire. It's just not wearing a tie, but wearing the right tie. Ties compliment the style of your clothing, however a mismatched tie can end up marring the whole idea of coordination in your clothing. Here are some useful tips that can guide you to coordinate your wardrobe for a long time.

White Shirt
Due to its immaculate whiteness, any coloured tie will go with a white shirt. White is the colour that will remain subdued accentuating the colour of the tie. So if you want to show of your tie wear a white shirt. Also choose a white shirt when you are unsure about the coordination.

Plain coloured shirts
Coordinating a tie with the plain coloured shirt needs a little care. It's just the ability to choose the right coloured tie for your shirt or vice versa.

A pale blue shirt will go with a yellow, red, burgundy, gold or a navy blue tie.
A navy blue or a burgundy coloured tie will be a good match for your pale pink shirt.
Brown or related hues of brown can go with a pale brown or tan shirt.

A French blue shirt will match with a yellow, bright red, deep burgundy or a gold tie.

Stripped Shirts
Unlike the plain shirts that only included the colour coordination while choosing a tie, ties for the stripped shirts have to be chosen with colour as well as the pattern. Stripped shirts are normally matched with box pattern, pin or polka dot patterned ties.

For a change you can also add a paisley pattern for a novel look. Otherwise choose a tie with stripes that do not correspond with the stripes of the shirt. The size of the stripe should differ from the size of the stripe of your shirt to break the monotony. This will help the tie stand out and not to collide with the stripes of the shirt.

Checkered Shirts

The same rule of coordination that goes for a stripped shirt also goes for a checkered shirt. First choose a colour that will go well with the colour of your shirt. A tie with diagonal stripes will go well with a checkered shirt. You can also choose dotted ties. If you are going for boxes, see to it that the sizes of the boxes are not the same as the size of the checks of your shirt.

Coordinating ties with suits
The colour and the pattern of the suit have to be considered before choosing a tie.

If the suit is of a solid colour, choose any solid coloured tie with any pattern. The same rules can be advocated for a suit that has chalk stripes. But if the stripes are bold, choose any bold coloured tie of any pattern. The only thing that you should avoid is to stay away from a stripped tie. This will hamper the appearance of both the suit as well as the tie.

Suit, Shirt, Tie Coordination
A checked, stripped or a hound's tooth suit requires a shirt with a solid colour and a patterned tie. This will enhance the look of all the three bits of your attire. For a solid coloured suit you can either opt for a patterned shirt with a patterned tie with a difference in the patterns. Solid coloured shirts and ties have to be chosen.

Hence, it should not be after all difficult to choose the right tie for your attire.
