Your silver fox and silver cantle sporran should be fine for any somewhat dressy to very dressy evening war. Even during the day, if you're in a black argyl with a black four-in-hand tie, it'll do fine.
It will be a little too dressy for usual day wear unless you're really dressed up. For that, almost any style brown sporran is fine. I'd go for a very plain sporran unless you can afford a nice pig skin or other pricier brown sporran.
At least, that's what I think.
And that's all I got to say about that.
Jim -
I am inclined to agree with you - particularly after viewing the smashing photo of OCR. I will see how it looks with my charcoal argyle tweed jacket. I think it will be just fine in the evening when I have on a nice jacket and tie. I will post pics.
