Im just outta school and I'm not really a suit wearer (maybe 1-2 times a year when the occasion calls for it), but my workplace is hosting their annual Christmas party at a well known hotel ballroom. Last year, I didn't care much and went with my standard black suit (white dress shirt without tie) and felt like an absolute fool
because I was the only one tie-less.
Let's say I'm going to make an "effort" to do something different this year. I'm on a low budget, but shopping around, I found a Kenneth Cole Slim Fit Dark Violet/Purple w/ Satin Stripe dress shirt (16.0, 34/35) to my liking. The dark violet/purple is very similar to this - http://www.thepurplestore.com/images...B002LUOG02.jpg - but there are vertical satin stripes.
I'm not sure how well the violet will match with my black jacket/pants, but more importantly, what colour tie should I buy? Solid white, solid silver?
Also, I'm thinkin' of goin skinny tie since I'm 6'0, 157lbs, long/lanky/toned build.....
Thoughts, suggestions?
...
(or should I just scrap this whole purple shirt idea and go standard white shirt/black skinny tie?
