    If it were me I would not bother with a plaid, save your money. For evening wear they just look too much and get in the way. A day plaid, or Lairds plaid as it seems to be known here, is at least useful in our Scottish weather, but I have always found them nothing but a damn nuisance, they are the very devil to keep in position. I have wondered if a couple of strips of Velcro might solve that problem though. There was a long running thread about all this some time ago and there were some good pictures of the day plaid being carried. The choice is yours, but if it were me, I would buy an Inverness cape instead.
