Ties can be a tricky accessory, mainly because there are many options when choosing one. Each event requires the perfect tie.  The best bet, however, is to express who you are. If you feel comfortable in your tie of choice and if you feel you are owning it, guess what? You are. Here are your options…

1: Goofy ties: pictures, themes, bow-ties, extra wide

2: Classic ties: solid color (red, blue, black, white, gray) simple and gets the job done

3:  Retro ties: thinner, burnt colors, textured fabric

4:  Colorful ties: silkier fabric, a bolder statement choice (purple, pink, orange, green, etc.)

5:  None: going without a tie makes you look more casual or even approachable (it could be the way to go if you are going to an event stag) just leave the top two buttons undone. Remember the key is for you to feel comfortable. If you cannot decide on a tie, maybe the right choice is none.

 

When choosing a tie, think about the context…are you going to work? To a wedding?  A party?  Decide which of the above types of ties would be the most appropriate for your specific event and…get shopping!
