What colour dress shirt should I wear with a navy blue suit?

Question

light blue? indigo? yellow? white?

I love yellow behind a black or blue suit, but I always wear yelow, so I want something different, but at the same time...I love yellow, and there's a reason I have like 5 yellow dress shirts.

Answer 1

I'd say wear Indigo :) or white sounds fun to me ;-) light blue is kinda standard and yellow no man...and since ur already a yellow guy why again yellow for dinner party too :-S

change and look for something new and different then routine.

Answer 2

Blue Suit Yellow Shirt

Answer 3

Light blue or those others, or even maybe a good light shade of green, mauve or pink could be good. Do you wear a tie? If you want something different, maybe wear the suit with your yellow shirt to the store and see if other colours are as good. Maybe you could wear a tie or try different tyes with the yellow shirt for something different. It is good to wear something different sometimes, but I understand you liking and feeling comfortable with one main thing (I tend to wear and pick blue things more than other colours). Good luck with it.

Answer 4

Depends on occasion. Blue is tradition, I'm your friend color. White is always classic to make it "professional and clean". Since u like yellow, try adding a yellow tie/bow to shirt or decorative yellow pin to jacket. Or, if u or someone u know can sew, add yellow strings(strings isn't right, but it's colored "strings"you buy on rolls at fabric store) and sew them onto the collar to hang down, as if you'd tie them together in a necktie. That didn't come out right, but try to picture what I'm saying. Saw it in a Richard Gere movie where the girl wore black suit/white shirt and multi-colored strings from under shirtcollar, 1st and only time I saw it, but I thought it looked awesome.

Answer 5

Hey Chigga,
I think yellow dress shirt is great with black or blue suit - if you want to try a different look add a bowtie! it gets people's heads turning- you will be noticed !

Answer 6

White looks good with most suits, but if you want to try something different, try pink. You already wear yellow. But stay in that general direction. Anything too dark will just look like a funeral.

Answer 7

I would go with a light blue shirt... I think white may look a little like a school uniform and I don't think black would go very well with navy and yellow, too much of a color clash. Have fun!

Answer 8

white is probably the safest colour to go for especially with a blue suit!

Answer 9

for a party try light silver it will give a nice effect with a steel grey tie

Answer 10

yellow or even a lightt soft pink, or a soft green go for a soft tone
