Guest Blogger: shirts and ties.

Guest Blogger Mateo proposes a rule for dudes to decide what ties go with what shirts -

There are millions of people who say millions of things about ties and shirts.

I present a simple formula.

The simpler the shirt, the more intricate the tie. The more intricate shirt, the simpler tie.

Let's take a look.

Simple spread collar. Pretty crazy tie.

A little more going on in the shirt, a little less going on in the tie.

A little more going on in the shirt, a little less in the tie.

This is a loose rule with serious exceptions - white shirt, skinny black tie, and about a hundred others. Just try to think about it for a moment before you put it on.
