While you may be able to match ties to your shirts and suits like a pro, pairing ties with sports jackets and blazers may throw you a curve. Here's a quick cheat sheet to help you make the best selections.
If we tried to cover every possible combination and contingency of how to match ties with other items in your wardrobe, it would take a book. Our purpose here is to give you some quick and dirty tricks for quickly picking the best tie to complement your outfit - every time.
Once you've mastered the knack of matching ties to your business shirts and suits, making eye catching combinations with your suit jackets and blazers is a breeze. Just remember two "rules":

While sports jackets are usually considered informal, the tone of their fabric can be complemented with:
Match smooth silk ties with rough weave jackets and reserve the knitted neckwear for sports jackets that require a more casual feel.
You're probably wondering if it could really be that simple. Well, when you take the time to match a tie to a shirt, the rest of the process just seems to flow naturally.
