    Lovat Green Jacket Pairings

    I've been wanting a Lovat Green jacket for awhile now. I've only ever bought second hand jackets, but on Tomo's advice I found this Pale Green Checked Crail Jacket set on sale at McCalls, and finally took the plunge. It arrived here in California within a week, and I'm very pleased with it. They may not have marketed it as Lovat Green, but it is similarly toned and heathered - close enough for me, and the price was close to impossible to beat. I've heard that Lovat Green really goes with everything, and man, does it. To demonstrate the versatility, and because I had nothing better to do this afternoon, here's a selection with my wool kilts, including a closeup of my favorite pairing, Fraser of Lovat in Wilson's Colors.

    I think the only pairing I question is the Fraser Green Gathering - I might prefer my charcoal jacket there.
