I started (after the first which was a family occasion and a hugely pleasant surprise to my mum) by just putting it on one Wednesday and going about the daily routine and errands. Then it was dressed up a bit for an office meeting, then worn a full weekend away visiting family and tromping about. Not a lot of comments. Of them, most curious and complimentary. The others were just comments. Didn't take them to heart. Did meet some nice people - and I don't recall ever receiving compliments on the street in a suit and tie (and I look dang good in suit and tie, thank you very much 😄)
