FRIDAY 02.21.14: THE BLUE - NON NAVY - SUIT OR ODD JACKET CHALLENGE

The navy is a stable and universally liked, but perhaps one tends to forget the numerous other hues, which works in many textures and combinations, summer and winter alike, so our members from kinder climates can strut their stuff as well.
So let’s see your 2 and 3 piece suits or odd non navy blue coats – tie required, if patterned blue must be dominating color, no ventilated shoes – full shots mandatory, ¾ and back shots recommended!

• multi-voting will be allowed

Deadline for submission of pics is Sunday Feb 23, 12.00 GMT

Voting ends 48 hours after the deadline for submissions.

Good luck!
:bigstar:

Some inspiration below:

Great idea!

Get some folks out of their comfort zones.

Not sure if I can do a winter fit. Is it cheating to do a summer fit if I have 18" of snow outside my apartment?

This is a neat idea. I think I have a suit that should qualify!

I strongly recommend that the deadline be moved up to Saturday night at the latest. Sunday deadline with 48 hours to vote severely compresses the schedule next week for whomever wins.

I second that emotion.

Note that Sunday 1200 GMT is actually 7:00 AM EST for those in the US, and 4:00 AM PST - the difference between Saturday evening and Sunday morning, for most of us, will be rather moot. Cutoff of Sunday rather than Saturday (at least Saturday after sundown) also allows Stitchy to play, an important part of any contest in these parts, since he is our most ardent cheerleader.

Yerp!!

Crusty, you are a sweetheart. If I have to though, I can always post up in the challenge read on Thursday or Friday morning.

I'm half-asleep right now, so I'm not really processing all this time zone math.

Looking forward to seeing the entries on this one, but my only qualifying coat is a summer affair, and there's still snow on the ground. There should be some fun entries though.
