    Thanks everyone. I have to say. I felt pretty good in this get-up.

    But I AM a fan of colored jackets. Nice one.
    I would love to have a matching vest. But, I purchased the jacket from a fellow on Ebay. And, I fear ordering a vest and it "not quite matching." Oh, and I started to go with a white shirt and hose. (There's a picture with this jacket and my Gunn like that in a thread somewhere.) But, if I were going to do that, I'd like to have a different coloured tie. Maybe brown or the faded blue to match my kilt.

    Looks good Brad. Although, I do agree with Dread, there seems to be something causing a wee bit of clashing or discord with the ensemble to my eye, but I can't tell what. And it could just be the color reproduction on my monitor.

    Great weathered tartan. This last weekend I found myself doing double-takes and paying attention to the few weathered kilts I saw. They are SHARP!

    Looks good to me. I'm really wanting a tweed jacket for day wear, and I happen to like the contrast of your jacket to the weathered kilt.

    Yes, Andy, I am! Bradley has come up with some very finely co-ordinated ensembles recently - and I am getting really rather jealous!

    There is a blue-ish cast affecting the photo as I am seeing it, which throws the other colours a little bit for me, but I very much like all that I see. The toning of the jacket looks just right to me but if I were to criticise anything it would be the shoes ......... slip-ons look just too 'delicate' and 'lightweight' in my eyes. Kilt footwear, especially when the wearer is dressed other than casually, requires to be a little heavier looking. Just a matter of visual balance!

    Apart from that Bradley: superb.

    I think I have to agree with you Ham. Next time... wing tips it is.
