Many men like to update their look at seasonal times, and the New Year offers an excellent opportunity to go through your closet, get rid of those items you no longer wear, and replace them with something new that feels a little more like who you are right now. This is especially important for keeping up appearances in the professional work environment. You can start creating some new looks by purchasing some shirt and tie sets in new colors so that you can have a variety of combinations from which you can mix up with what you wear.

First, think about color and color combinations when you are ready to shop for a new dress shirt and tie. You can start by thinking about which colors look good on you when you wear dress shirts and ties. The exact colors of your shirt and tie sets will vary depending upon the coloring of your skin and eyes. Those with fair skin and blonde hair can try sky blue, turquoise, mint, or light apricot for your dress shirt and tie selections. Men with dark hair and a variety of skin tones can wear a dress shirt and tie in shades such as light yellow, ivory, soft white, powder blue, chocolate brown, dark teal or true green.

The tie portion of the dress shirt and tie set is also important to the overall look of your outfit. Silk ties are appropriate for shirt and tie sets in the workplace but you may also add some texture in your tie fabric for another look.

Another consideration is the style of the dress shirt and tie that you choose. You could select a dress shirt and tie set that contains French cuffs. French cuffs are cuff fabric that is doubled and folded over on top of itself. All the layers of fabric are held together with a cuff link. Long sleeves on your dress shirt and tie combo are warmer in the winter but short sleeves for dress shirts and ties are available for summer wear. You might also select a banded collar if you wish to go without a tie on a more casual day.
