Hi Folks,

I have had great advice/perspective on here before so will cast my line out again.

Later this summer I will attend the Edinburgh Tattoo as part of the retinue associated with Clan Buchanan. This year it is a unique event whereby the clans are forming an integral part of the celebration.

The primary function will be to march outdoors as part of the group. I anticipate wearing a charcoal tweed jacket, diced hose custom-knit to match the tartan, a bias cut tartan waistcoat as part of the outfit. I don't however know whether its A) appropriate to use a hat as part of the outfit, or B) what sort of hat I should wear. Are either of these pictured items appropriate? All help gratefully received. Thank you!!
