Taking Off a Tie to Use Again

Video Transcript

"Oh Hi, I'm Douglas Willott on behalf of Expert Village. And today we are going to talk about coordinating your shirt with your tie. Earlier we talked about when you're in a hurry and you're not just at a point where you want to go through and make an effort to coordinate. You go for a white shirt or a black tie which generally go with any of their complementary item. Now there's another technique that you can use, and a lot of guys who already know this that can make it easier for you to coordinate as time goes on. This is what I refer to as the Lazy Removal. This is where you undo the tie enough so that it comes off from around your neck, but you don't undo it the rest of the way. The way you can use this for coordination, because most guys already know this trick. But the way, the trick that guys don't know is you can actually just take the tie, instead of putting the tie back or in a drawer put it around the hanger of a shirt that you know it goes with or in the case of the suit coordination that we showed earlier put it with the suit jacket which is especially good if you need to send the shirt off to the cleaner for whatever reason. If you can memorize like that, which shirt goes to which tie then later on when you need to break out a good shirt or a good tie to coordinate with, you just automatically go for the right one and it's right there with the shirt."
