However, this is not the case for a dad in San Antonio, Texas, Steve Montgomery.

Steve thought this is the perfect time to lighten things up a bit, so he thought of a matching face mask to his ties!

His daughter Kiana Montgomery posted photos of her fashionable father on Twitter, wearing his matching tie and masks.

The matching ties and face masks

Steve shared with mySA that wearing a matching tie and facemasks was started only a few days ago. 

Steve's girlfriend is the one who makes the facemasks that would match his ties. The cloth for the facemasks was from pocket inserts. The other materials are dismantled parts from other masks.
