Matching a tie to your sport coat brings your look together.
Sport coats are less formal than suit jackets and can be worn anything from dress pants to jeans. Sport coats look appropriate with and without a tie. It isn't mandatory that you wear a tie when you wear a sport coat, however, you can choose to do so and complete your look by matching your tie to your coat. The look you want to achieve is entirely up to you. Follow a few simple pieces of advice to create a dapper look.
Instructions
1. Choose a tie in the same color scheme as your sport coat. For example, if your coat is dark blue, choose a tie in the blue family in a lighter shade. Grey, black and navy sport coats go well with pink, black, blue, red, gold, burgundy, yellow and purple ties.
2. Pair a khaki or camel color sport coat with other shades of brown, rust, green, gold, garnet, yellow and red.
3. Opt for striped or solid color ties. If your sport coat features pin stripes, you can still wear a pattern tie; larger stripes and solid colors complement a pinstripe jacket.
