If fashion is not your strong point it can be very awkward when trying to find a nice neck tie to go with your fashionable shirt. Picking the wrong tie would just defeat the object of a fashionable shirt altogether.

Neck ties are not as bad as many other clothes when it comes to changing style but every so often the styles do inevitably change. Today the style is to have a mid sized tie with a small knot whereas a few years ago it was a broad looking tie with a very large knot.

Color has always played a big part in the fashion scene too. If you are wearing a shirt that is of a solid color then try not to buy a solid color tie to go with it. It may feel like a safe choice of attire but it can limit the amount of clothes that it can actually go with in terms of fashion.

Try wearing a shirt that has two or more colors and pick out the main color of the shirt. Then you can match the tie to this color for a better fashion statement. One example would be a shirt with white and brown in it could look quite good with a brown tie.

Patterned shirts can be easier to find ties to match them. If you have a patterned shirt where the pattern is quite small you could get a tie with a bigger pattern on it to contrast the style.

At the same time if your shirt was the one with the bigger patterns on it then choose a tie that comes with a smaller pattern on it.

Shirt collars come in various sizes too and this can play a part in what tie you can wear with them. It would be quite a silly move to wear a thick tie and large knot if the shirt only had a narrow collar on it. In the same way it would look silly having a mid sized tie and small knot that is being drowned by a thick collar.

If all else fails check out the latest fashion magazines to see what sort of fashion is in at the moment and follow that.
