Like shoes are for women, ties can be for men. Guys can get away with owning just a couple of suits and/or a few trousers, but having a good selection of ties is a must. The right tie can make or break an outfit. Here are some ties that will coordinate well with a wide variety of outfits.

Just like their shirts, Charles Tyrwhitt makes great ties. They are made in England with the same attention to detail as their shirts. This beautiful pink tartan plaid tie is 100% silk and handmade. What a great tie to wear with a blue shirt.
6. Kenneth Cole New York Tie, Solid Skinny

Skinny ties are all the rage right now. The slim suit with white shirt and skinny a la 'Mad Men' is a trend that has taken men's fashion by storm. But you don't want to spend lots o' cash on a trend that may not last. This Kenneth Cole tie comes in silver and black and is quite affordable.
7. Banana Republic Don Stripe Silk/Linen Tie

If you like skinnier ties but want a bit of pattern, check out this black and grey stripe silk tie from Banana Republic. It's made of silk and linen and is quite elegant.
8. Emporio Armani Patterned Jacquard Silk Tie
Forzieri
My favorite neckties are by Giorgio Armani. The fabrics and designs are interesting and elegant. Of course they are more expensive but worth it if you want to splurge. This jacquard silk tie features a subtle optical pattern. It also comes in both black and dark blue and is made in Italy.
