Popular Collocation Nowadays, monochromatic collocations with the same tones are very popular in clothing. If you want to be stylish, try a shirt and tie in the same shade. In this match, the tie should be a darker color than the shirt, but they can also be the exact same color. Classic Collocation A timeless fashion pairing is a white or light blue shirt with a monochromatic or brightly patterned tie. It's a timeless outfit that's perfect for any occasion. In the way of clothing matching, simplicity is always pleasing. Don't try to be innovative if you're not so confident about your taste in choosing a tie. You know, most men don't feel very good about patterns. Not only that, but you never know who might be offended by your "different" taste. The combination of shirt and tie also reflects your sophistication as a person to some extent. When matching clothes, every detail should be considered. Shirts, ties, suits and everything else. Every item should have some relationship with the other. It's like two partners in a relationship. Without communication, there is no harmony.
