I've sought Foo approval and am currently waiting on his reply in his own thread, but thought I'd also ask the general public about a purple/purple combo I'm considering. It's a lavender mini gingham shirt and purple tie. The shades are all different but I can't quite decide whether the tones are right with each other:

Now, for the other question: braces. I know that nobody is supposed to see them. I also know that people will see them. Is it too "matchy" to also wear purple braces, assuming the above combo works in general?
Beyond that, I also have a suit/tie/shirt combo that I'm seeking opinions on since I'm concerned about the mixing of blues and blacks. The shirt is a contrast collar striped shirt with light blue, white and black. The suit is dark blue, but not quite as deep as navy and the grey dot stripe gives it almost a steely look. The tie is black with white polka dots. I can sense it's on the edge of working well and chosen-by-Stevie-Wonder so again, opinions sought. Foo; this didn't make it to your thread but you're more than welcome to weigh in.
