Aqua Colored Neckties for Summer 2013

Men's Style Color for Spring & Summer 2013: Aqua & Turquoise

Summer is all about light and fresh colors, and this is no different in the world of men's neckties. While pinks, lime-greens, and light blues have already been popular summer tie colors for several years, for 2013 another trend color hits the scene: Aqua Blue. Here are some tips on how to wear these pieces for business and leisure.



Summer Suits
The brightness of aqua says it all: It is a true warm-weather color that reminds of turquoise Caribbean waters, beaches, and palm trees. Thus, when wearing aqua colored ties, pair them with true summer suits in soft colors made from light-weight fabrics. Light gray, blues, and off-whites are all excellent choices here.

Classic Shirts
Your best bet is the classic white dress shirt. It is a piece that creates the perfect canvas for the bold aqua colored tie. Want that the tie really pops of the shirt? Then consider wearing a jet-black dress shirt - but be prepared that this can get uncomfortably warm when worn on sunny summer days.

Silver not Gold
Thinking about wearing a french cuffed shirt paired with cufflinks in combination with a aqua colored tie? Then be advised that gold metals will clash. Aqua is considered a cool color, and it should be paired with complementing "cool" colored accessories. Silver and platinum are perfect, and gold is not. Keep this in mind not just for cufflinks, but also for tie-bars, belt buckle, wrist watch, and all other metals on your ensemble.
