Hi, I've looked through many of the old threads touching in this subject but couldn't find an answer to my specific question.

I understand that tweed day wear may be worn for non-formal events in the evening but have seen suggestions that darker colors are more appropriate in general for the evening. So assuming that one were to wear smart day wear in the evening intentionally (not at a day event that simply continued into the evening), is black preferred for leathers such as the sporran and shoes or is brown still considered okay as with daytime smart day wear? As for the jacket, would it really be considered gouache to wear a lovat green tweed in good condition over navy or charcoal?

Or is this just personal preference for some of the posters here?
