Top 5 Shirt and Tie Combos: #4 White Dress Shirt, Solid Knit Tie

 

Paul Stuart Knit Ties, $69.50

We love solid knit ties. They cast an air of elegant simplicity. They’re modest and subtle, and you can almost never go wrong with one. So try another safe bet and pair these subdued pieces with your safest shirt in your closet: your white dress shirt.

Simple though this look may be, it isn’t about playing it safe. It’s about playing it classic. The white dress shirt and the knit tie are soulmates — paired together for years to deliver monochromatic brilliance. It’s an example of dressing in a way that makes you look grown up, smart, and tasteful. With a dark knit tie, a navy or gray suit usually ought to make for a smashing getup. 

Alternatively, you can always pair another dark, solid tie — even if it’s not knit — with a white shirt. We’d just recommend dressers beware of the overly glossy silks. A matte finish or a little bit of texture goes a long way.

    A nice grenadine can be the perfect balance between the nonchalance of a silk knit and the overly slick of a shiny silk solid. Make mine a Sam Hober and you’re good to go.
