Neckties aren’t just for men-they’re a great way to add a little moxie to your look. If you’ve never worn one before, you’ll need to know some style basics beyond how to tie a neckties. Building a look and avoiding neck tie faux pas will make sure you leave the house looking smart and spunky.
Below are Ways To Wear Neckties For Women:
Pair Skinny Neckties With Blazers For a Clever, Casual Look
If you already wear a blazer at work, add a skinny tie into the mix to elevate your everyday look. A black or navy blazer is a good investment because you can pair it with any colour tie.
Choose a colourful tie with a solid-coloured button-up for playful. Post-work vibes.
Go for a casual-chic look with jeans, a collared blouse, and blazer.
If you want to go for a grunge or rockstar look, pair a skinny silk tie with a relaxed tee or scuffed-up top.
Wear Loose Neckties With a Button-up For an Ultra-Casual Look
To keep the look consistent with the loose, casual tie, make sure your collar isn’t too stiff. Keep it loose and little disheveled by unbuttoning the top 2 or 3 buttons.
Avoid trying to match your neckties to a patterned button-up shirt. If your top has lots of loud colours, choose a black tie.
If your shirt is solid, opt for a playfull look by wearing a colourful or patterned tie.
For Preppy Look Wear Your Neckties Under Sweaters
Let the top of the tie peek out from the neck of your sweater for a clever take on the college-prep style. Be careful not to look too scholastic-make sure the tie is a darker colour than your sweater and the collared shirt underneath.
Make sure the sweater isn’t so tight that there’s a lump where the tie lays underneath.
Choose a plain Belt That Complements Your Tie
Don’t forget to wear a belt when you’re wearing a tie! The belt will balanced out your look, especially if you’re wearing jeans or slacks. However, this isn’t a strick rule-a tie can look just as great without a belt depending on what aesthetic you’re going for.
For instance, it’s more than acceptable to avoid wearing a belt if you’re pairing the tie with a dress or long blouse that covers the top of your pants or jeans.
A brown or black belt is always a good way to go.
