Hey all,

Just bought this suit. Usually, I go for a plain or tweed suit but fancied this. Not sure I like the purple tie and pocket square though. I'm not sure what other colours would go, any ideas? I'm thinking the white shirt and black shoes though...

Thanks in advance :)

I'd recommend never wearing a matching tie/pocket square combination unless you are a) a member of the wedding party and b) the bride has insisted that all the groomsmen wear them.

As for that suit, I love that donegal. I'd choose a tie that pulls the sky-blue or burgundy and makes it pop.

I would go for a black knitted tie and a white pocket square.
