Shopping for a waistcoat (vest)

[McMurdo]

Well as you have not indicated if you will be wearing the waistcoat with an Argyle or other type of jacket I would say to see if you can find one that is black as it will work with quite a few tartans including the Black Watch and Campbell of Argyll. Might I also suggest you see if you can get a waistcoat in tweed as I think a tweed waistcoat would look very sharp with the outfit you are preposing.

I hadn't planned on wearing a jacket for two reasons: one, I don't have one, and two, right now the average temperature where I live is between 95 and 105 degrees farenheit.

I'll look for a tweed waistcoat, and I'll aslo browse the jackets while I'm there, but I doubt I'll find anything I can work with...

I would definitely suggest solid black. It looks good/classy with most everything.
