It was great to wear this lovat green jacket again. I really like the stag horn buttons and the fit of this jacket.
I've been wearing this other patterned tweed one a lot lately, which i like because of the less common tweed and the lighter weight of the fabric. This one is not nearly as warm as the green one. If I can find a good deal on real stag horn buttons for the jacket and waistcoat, I'll swap these synthetic ones off. This jacket also has shorter epaulettes than most. I'm not sure why that choice was made, but I'm getting used to it.
I did have to take off the green tweed and bonnet in the afternoon because it got so hot. By contrast, The morning and the evening were very cool.
