I have a baby blue and white pin striped jacket and pants. I have a brunch I am going to attend today and was trying to figure out what color shirt and tie I should wear with it. I have a white baby blue and dark blue shirt that form small squares with a camel fur colored tie I was planning on wearing with it. I think it looks ok but it might just be too much blue. ANY SUGGESTIONS WILL BE GREATLY APPRECIATED!!!!!

Too much blue and too much pattern. White or cream shirt or a very pale pastel and the camel tie would work, depending on the fabric of the tie.

pictures?

if your jacket+pants are loud, tone down the rest. Meaning plain white shirt, no belt, simple shoes, etc. Simple tie with minimal pattern (eg small dots) in harmonious color like green, red, etc.
