    Where you are and in those traditions of place and religious community, I would suspect you'd be good in either jacket, but I would be careful not to overdo the sporran or hose too much if you have choices.

    I only have single color hose at the moment, I was thinking of wearing lovat blue. My other choices would be charcoal, oat, or black.

    The sporran I'd wear is a simple black leather and chrome, I have a black faux rabbit fur one for dressier occasions but that one wasn't even in my thoughts.

    Probably all appropriate enough. The darker jacket would likely be good and the simpler sporran.

    Alrighty, that's what I'll do then. Thank you for your input!
