    Is that your preferred style of vest? All those silver buttons sure look like a military uniform. Should you want to soften the look, maybe try a light-colored shirt? Cheers.

    P.S. these pics are really, really big!! You might want to post a smaller size in the future.
    I will definitely retake after the beard goes bye-bye.

    Sorry about the pic size. First time trying that feature here. The pictures were not the best quality and if they were smaller I think they would have blurred.

    This is my first jacket and waistcoat, I like the style very much, though. Very formal looking without being prince charlie. I also purposefully did black on black for the more severe look. I usually wear jeans and a Star-Wars t-shirt to church so if I was wearing tie it would be on my terms. Nothing but compliments, though!

    Looks pretty darn sharp! The kilt looks really good with the hose and jacket, and Nighthawk did a heck of a job on that sporran.

    I have to second (or third) the Rasputin comment. You don't look like you're completely insane the way he did, but there really is bit of a resemblance!
