S/S fabric fit (cotton or linen) would be good.
So would burgundy tie with an odd jacket
Or neat with an odd jacket
Or subvert an unspoken rule
Sprezz would invite some fun trainwrecks and give us an opportunity to see what @Tirailleur1 or @NickPollica would choose as a challenge.

Spring fabric isn't fair to those of us who live where it is still winter. :p

Since it’s spring in the northern hemisphere and autumn in the southern it’s possible for everyone to be spending time outdoors. Perhaps a sporting-related fit challenge, reminding us of why these things are called “sport coats”?

Just a thought.

Cheers,

Ac

You and your traditions.

Other suggestions (and I'm assuming that either CM or myself is going to get this one):

The Odd Tie challenge (can't be base blue, green, red, or brown)
Adopt a Prop challenge (coordinate a prop into the picture)
Check Yo'self challenge (checked shirt of some sort)
Peak-A-Boo challenge (a peaked lapel challenge)
Eastern Inspiration challenge (get inspired by Asian bloggers/tumblrs/etc)
White Buck challenge (if CM wins)

I think it's you. You're pulling away as the finish line nears!

As for white bucks, I wouldn't subject you all to that.

I'm torn between Eastern Inspiration (be inspired by an Asian blog/tumblr) and Striped Tie challenge

I'll name it tomorrow morning and would live to hear thoughts until then

Congrats Clags! Why not make the Eastern/Asian Inspiration a bit broader than tumblr?
