Hello everybody, I am new and think I like the forum. I thought it best to start with a question.
At the moment I have sort of started to extend my wardrobe, I'm doing an internship in England and therefore have a bit more cash than my usual student style. Good to spend it on clothes, I thought.
However, with only a few dress shirts and ties, I have found matching them harder than I expected.
I just can't in the shop predict exactly how something is going to look with something I have at home. Not to mention from ebay pictures!
Of course, I could just buy shirts and ties together, from the same brand, but that feels a bit like cheating, and it halves the fun of finding something new.
I think the main problem is that I like ties with bright colors and flower designs, and deep inside, I like my shirts that way too. I can keep myself sort of in check when buying dress shirts, but I still dont want to spend my youth buying muted colours that go well with everything.
Any advice?
Also, I get the impression a lot of you are American. Any advice on online places where I can spend my overvalued pounds sterling? Might be worth the shipping costs.
