Hey guys, I have two ties and I'm just terrible at matching a good shirt color with ties. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Tie 1:

Both could be paired with white or light blue shirts, of course. Some people suggest those are the only shirt colors one needs.

Bottle green and navy would go well with light pink as well.

These are quite obvious choices, but recommended nonetheless.

Why don't you just take the ties to a shirt store and ask for some help from the SA?

Or get a couple of other ties that aren't green and dark blue stripes. Its a big world out there so don't be shy. Live a little.

Solids or very small checks in light blue or light pink or light grey. Solid white.
