I know I already responded to this, but I would like to step back to it for a moment if I may.

I was perusing the welcome threads and saw this picture posted by Robert (Ancienne Alliance):



Now I could be wrong, but what you described looks a lot like what he has done in the picture. Robert, if you see this, could you describe what it is you're wearing there? It's hard to tell because it's black, but it looks like a cross-belt holding a satchel or bag of some sort. And you look smashing, as always!
