Most men have a deep dark secret that they don’t want to share with anyone, its even taboo to talk about it among themselves.  Most guys don’t know what type of tie to wear with there stripped or plaid shirt.  Give us a solid shirt and 99 percent of guys will figure out how to match it with a tie, but give us a shirt with plaid or stripe on it, and we are lost like a puppy. Here are a few tips. Time to get rid of that fear fellas!

 

1) For fine stripe shirt, textured ties look the best (fine stripe shirt) FINE STRIPED COTTON SHIRT $175.00; 1901 Solid Knit Tie $39.50
