    Agreed. Informal day wear I have observed whilst in the Highlands (specifcially throughout my own family - the Macphersons of Invereshie as well as the Macphersons of Cluny, Glentruim and Pitmain) is typically through the form of a v-neck or crew neck jumper, a button-down shirt by itself, or both worn together - much of the 'informal' day wear depending upon the weather and what one is actually doing.

    Cheers,
