1. VARY THE SCALE
A wide-striped tie looks best against a fine-striped shirt. And vice versa.
2. TRY NEW THINGS
Pair stripes with plaid? Checks with paisley? Absolutely—as long as you vary the scale. (See rule #1.)
3. PICK A WINNER
Your shirt and tie shouldn't compete. If one is bold, keep the other one subtle.
