coordinating linen jacket

[FossilHunter]

I'm trying to figure out a combination of patterns/colors that will allow me to use this my linen jacket. In my previous thread folks were saying that the check of the jacket would work better with a less busy tie/shirt.

Blues and browns are a classic combination. I thought the pale blue looks nice with the beige. New (to me) vintage brown sporran. I can't do anything about the tartan size and checks of the jacket being of similar size.

I think that the look generally works. The hose are darker brown than I like but they were the only pair clean that day.

While a more traditional tweed jacket might look better (it is something I want to get at some point regardless). I got the linen jacket to wear in the spring/summer here when shirtsleeves isn't the only reasonable choice.

Feedback is appreciated.
