The navy jacket is a menswear classic and it’s likely we all have one or two hanging in our wardrobe. But how do you wear yours? Do you pair it with the same accessories time after time in a safe but signature look? The reason the navy jacket is such a style staple is its versatility – so it’s useful to know how to transform your jacket with different accessories.
When it comes to navy, subtle and simple work well but some brights - particularly green and yellow - can really allow you to have fun with the look. Don’t be afraid to experiment and step out of your comfort zone from time to time.
We wanted to explore how to adapt a classic navy jacket with different ties. Enjoy the looks below and get inspired to try something new.
Blue and Biscuit Striped Knitted Cashmere Tie
Brown and blue are always happy when paired together and this striped cashmere tie has a bold design which will help to add interest and a little fun to your classic jacket. Choosing a knitted tie is also helpful in adding a textural note to your look. With bold ties, simple shirts work best - we say choose nothing but white with this design. Gold accents could really bring this tie to life so choose gold cufflinks or a gold watch or belt buckle to add in metallic notes and provide polish. A simple blue linen pocket square can help to finish the look.
