    Well done laddie! Very smart. There is a time and a place for the Tshirt and boots and there is a time and a place for tweed and you are showing,if I may say so, great maturity of dress sense by recognizing that fact.It does not matter one jot what age you are, you wear what is appropriate for the occasion. Don't worry too much about matching your hose to anything. Bottle green,Lovat green, maroon would, for me, be a much better bet than black. I think I might loose the tie and have a more traditional one.Why? It is the wrong style of tie for the jacket.A small thing I know, but it will make a difference. Have fun!.

    Very smart

    I too am well out of the age range but I agree with the comments above.

    You look great but the hose should be green or blue.

    You might even wish to try this look, as modeled by the Duke of Argyll (red hose w/ red garters)
