I'm not a fan of contrast collars but the colours work just fine.

This isn't too bad, but I agree with the poster above. A tie of the same color usually kind of clashes. Any of the other ties you pictured would have the same problem, too... have any darker ties?

The suit looks conservative. The shirt is attention-getting. Therefore - for most situations - the tie should be rather conservative, which none of those are. While nearly solid purple or dark green would be fine, you ought to own a solid dark blue tie.

Its ok. Nothing special but it works. I would have reached for a navy blue tie to add a color. Just because the shirt is pink doesnt mean the tie has to be.
