I am planing to wear Khakis, a pink oxxford, and a blue and white seersucker sport coat on easter no matter what the weather is. I also am going to wear a paisley tie with pink and green in it. This sounds like a good combo right?

Sounds like baseline prepwear. No problem.

Of course, we need a pic to confirm.

I'm a little concerned about the tie being too much. A pic would clarify things.

I'm afraid this may be a classic example of something that sounds good in description but may end up a horrifying pastel melange in execution.

the tie sounds like it might be too much. of course the pink in the shirt could be dull enough and the khaki in the pants dark enough for a brighter tie to make sense. can't really tell without pic. if the pants are light and the shirt's pink has some brightness to it a navy paisley might work better than a pink and green one.
