I'd say neither, but that's just my opinion. Maybe on a tan suit, but even then, it could look very foppish.

Hmm...Metro Center as an avatar?

Anyway, as to the original question, only with white slacks, boat shoes, and a white yachting cap.

Yes on a navy summer casual suit (cotton or linen), I'd say.

+1. I have a navy summer-weight wool suit with white MoP buttons. I like it, but wear it for casual social occasions only.
