what color tie can i wear with a brown dress shirt?

Well, traditional fashion sense would say NO TIE with any "brown dress shirt". I would say, white or off-white would go tolerably well. Peeps here might suggest yellow. Ignore them.

tan? A different shade of brown?

Perhaps a very light shade of tan. A tie cries out for contrast from the background of the shirt, which is why, WHITE shirts are the norm.

 
Most colors should work fine with a solid brown dress shirt. I would start with either a blue, orange or pink depending on your options.
 
Beige, yellow, pattern that has brown in it. To be honest, a salmon color would work too.
 
pics?

i need to know how brown this shirt is.... because if its like really really dark you need a contrasting shade... lavender would work, someone said salmon, that would work, not yellow yellow- maybe like a pastel yellow, something really pale, baby blue

if its a light brown shirt, like tan or khaki looking, id go with maroon or navy blue or even like, emerald or plum

umm why are you people suggesting he wear black on brown? that is like fashion rule #1 bad bad bad.

yeah....I had a hot chick tell me that in High school (she was really hot!).

I sat behind her in ENglish and while I was talking to her she saw me wearing a brown belt with black shoes. She just went:

"Black Shoes and brown belt...that's a fashion no no"

Till this day, when i ever I see her i just call her "fashion police".

thanks for all the help!

here's the color link

Yeah, don't wear a tie with that. Heck, I don't even know what pants you'd wear with that.

yea, actually that is so true. something THAT brown, you cant wear dress pants with it. you would look like a turd wearing that shirt and dark pants. you cant wear white ones or youll like you belong in studio 54.... grey will not work and neither will khaki...

buy a new shirt, man and match it to a tie you already own...
