Classic! I like the grey jacket and black waistcoat... Very nice!

Looks good! 
If you want to wear it with the waistcoat I would recomend getting two very small safety pins and tacking the bottom up on the inside of the the waistcoat to shorten it.
A cheap, quick and easy fix to a too long waistcoat with a proper length kil jacket.
PM me if that didn't make sense
Cheers

Very nice. Congratulations. I like the turtleneck look myself (satisfies the spy in all of us.)

I like the black waistcoat with the grey jacket. You might want to consider replacing the buttons on the waistcoat with ones to match those on the jacket. I think it would present a more unified look.
They're both very good looks. Congrats, and keep posting the pics!

My thoughts exactly, Jamie!
Also (if I might be so bold, Pete) I would suggest wearing a grey tie rather than the black one with that combination. It would connect more with the kilt and, indeed, the jacket. A blue tie would also work, but it would need to match the blue of the tartan exactly and, being bright, it would rather take from the more formal 'look' - on second thoughts, better with a jacket-and-no-waistcoat outfit. Do give it a try sometime.
In all, a great new acquisition - well done!
Take care,
Ham.

Hamish--please 'be so bold'. Any advice from you is something I would always pay attention to! Thank you.
