They all seem fine to me. they is more about the shirt and the tie it is more about the general effect/impression Combine together seems a repetition to me, but I've seen it used.

Either one is fine. It depends on what you want to emphasize. they and it refer back to different things, as shown below.
When you combine the shirt and tie, they (the shirt and tie) look good.
When you combine the shirt and tie, it (the combination / the result of combining them) looks good.
