If you want to keep that tie, I would switch out the pocket square for nothing (my preference) or plain white linen (linen on linen will work fine here).
If you want to keep the PS, I would switch the tie for a plain navy repp/twill/fouille or a navy grenadine.
In either way, I would switch the socks for plain light brown as the suit
How is the linen napoli? The fabric looks really nice on these photos. Does it wrinkle as much as you would expect?

[MENTION=1968]Joe[/MENTION]klo Thanks! Gotta love a new pair of AE
[MENTION=4069]JBarwick[/MENTION] and [MENTION=12115]doomx[/MENTION] Thanks for the feedback. And when I look at the photos and read your comments, I think you are right. The purple pocket square is too much. A white one would have been better.
Regarding the socks, I don't own any plain brown socks and I knew I'd be wearing the linen suit. So I was looking for a pair of socks that would work best with the suit and the ones in the photo were what I settled on. Perhaps it is time to pick up some more 'standard' socks.
I was uncertain about purchasing the Napoli linen suit. I had never owned a linen suit before so it was a crap shoot. But man, did the crap shoot ever pay off! The fit of the suit is awesome. The fabric feels great. And I routinely (although not yesterday) get compliments while wearing it. The wrinkles haven't really been an issue for me, but as I wear it more and more this summer (one day a week) the jacket is starting to wrinkle more from sitting on the bus during transit. Aside from that, I have no complaints.
