You cannot argue against white shirts and sky blue shirts, if you prefer classic style. They belong to that field like fork and knife belong to a plate.
You can, however, argue that white shirts and sky blue shirts are not enough. You need cream-coloured shirts as well. Their shade weakens hard constrast, and it brings a noble touch to your style.
Don’t overlook cream-coloured shirts.

Is that cocktail cuff i spy there? Nice change of pace.
Cream/Ivory/Ecru shirts do not flatter my complexion. And frankly, it looks – to my eye anyway- like a white shirt that has seen a lot of wear and hence faded to a dirty shade of white.
Of course, YMMV
Great cuffs. New to me but they are great. I never like those cufflinks anyway.
