shirt to wear under a navy jacket

    I have a do this weekend and I am looking for a shirt to wear under a navy suit jacket. I am looking to stay away from the standard blues and lilacs – looking for something vibrant and fresh. Not too bothered about a tie so that’s one less thing to consider.

    Also any places around Galway would be a big help.

    You cant beat a pale blue shirt under a navy jacket, or a white & blue striped shirt, or even navy & white stripes.
    But if you must stay away from blue, would you go for baby pink?
    if it's a colour that you can pull off, it'll look well under the jacket.
    With regards to where to buy it, it depends on how much your willing to spend; for an expensive shirt, try Brown Thomas, medium price try Marks & Spencers (if galway has one?), for a cheaper price, try Dunnes.
    Gook luck with it!

    Colour of your slacks would be important too?

    the trousers are navy aswell -

    would a green go well - like a very light (lime) green, pin stripes perhaps?

    Good god no, stay away from lime green.

    A beige colour would be fine.
