I have a black Argyle jacket with chrome lozenge shaped buttons, the usual thing, and also a dove gray waistcoat with the same buttons. To my eye they look well together viewed in the mirror, but I'm wondering what our Scotian fashionistas might think of this combination. Is it a combination the cognoscenti might respect, or would they get all elitist on me. I'm considering the combo to wear to a formal event. The fall back is both black jacket and waistcoat. However that is almost too much a uniform to me, and I'd rather work out my own look.
