Now That’s Just Right:  A knotted tie should not be too short or too long. A tie is the perfect length when its tip touches the top of a man’s belt.

Contrast Is Everything:  If there is a high level of contrast between your hair color and your complexion, you can wear a jacket, shirt and tie combination that is high contrast too.  If there is little contrast between your hair color and complexion, choose a low contrast or monotone combination.

Think Pink:  In case you haven’t heard -- everyone loves a man in a pink shirt!! Don’t be afraid to add a little pink to your wardrobe. It will soften your complexion, bring out the color in your eyes, and generally make you irresistible. Better yet, just about every Squiddledee tie looks great with a pink dress shirt!

To Knot Or Not To Knot:  Of course, to knot -- but how big should a knot be? As a general rule, a knot should never be so large that it spreads the collar open. Likewise, a knot should never be so small that it becomes lost in the collar. 

Mirror, Mirror:  When in doubt about a particular combination, take a look in the mirror. If you find yourself hesitating for even a moment, something about your suit, shirt and tie combination isn’t right.
