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

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.
