What would be a good color and patterned tie to match with a navy blue suit, light blue shirt, and brown shoes/belt. Thanks!

Brown or mid-gray. Also black and charcoal, if you switch the shoes to black.

A brown knit tie, with brown cap-toes.

well, it breaks up the blue, and frees up the shoes.

Burgandy, burnt orange, or a gold-yellow.(depending on tie & texture. perhaps even a pink with a pattern featuring a light blue.

I need help with this one guys. This suit is greyish with light blue pinstripes. I will be wearing this with a white shirt. Is a light blue tie my only option? I need some ideas please.

^No, you can wear just about anything you damn well please with that. I'd personally steer away from the family of reds, but anything blue, anything green, anything brown, anything gray or black, Orange would probably be fine, probably not yellow, though I generally dislike yellow ties, so that may just be my bias talking.

Thanks. What do you think of the following two choices? Do either match?
