I'd change the shirt to white or blue regardless of the tie. If you have a less bright tie, I'd wear that too. If not, a white shirt is the way to go

A true white shirt would look a lot crisper than the offwhite. Off white shirts are actually much trickier to pull off and to match with ties. And if you have a less bright, or lower sheen tie, I would probably go with that.

I'll chime in that in the future, when posting a photo for advice, something a little higher in quality - and, above all, one where your hands aren't stuffed into your pockets - will make it easier for people to come up with good advice.

Not trying to sound nasty about this, I hasten to add.
