What tie to wear with a baby blue gingham shirt? Help needed before tmw!

Wool ones can be nice...

Sorry to resurrect this old thread, but I am curious what sort of tie I should look for to match navy chinos and a baby blue small check gingham shirt. I have a textured solid navy tie with small light blue golden fleece pattern. Is this simply too much navy blue? I realize I should probably stay away from anything striped.

Perhaps a yellow matte tie like this would be better?

Thanks again for any suggestions.

Not the tie you have linked. The pattern is too similar to gingham.

What about something in a faded orange or brown?



I happen to think gingham and stripes look great together. Another option from your linked vendor:

A solid navy blue tie.
