Black tie event with navy suit - what shirt/neckwear?

[M Colleague]

Hey guys,

I'm going to a black-tie-ish NYE party. Having attended the event before I know that there's going to be a number of people wearing normal dark suits. In recent years I've always worn my black tuxedo and felt appropriately dressed, but this time I forgot to bring it.

The most formal option I have available is a very nice navy two button suit. I guess I want to 'dress it up' but I'm unsure if it's fine to combine it with my normal tuxedo gear (which I have available). Here's all my options:

Shirt:
1. Tuxedo shirt with a hidden placket and Kent collar
2. White business shirt with a semi-spread collar

Neckwear:
1. Black bow tie
2. Black tie with very subtle white stripes
3. Solid blue tie (with a hue dangerously close to the color of my suit :/)

Can you guys please help me pick the most appropriate/formal combination

Thanks

Wear a white dress shirt (not the tux shirt) and any evening long tie. Like something with a satiny kind of finish. The black one would be fine I'm sure.

Don't try to pretend your navy suit is a tuxedo though.
