    I would suggest either a Braemar or an Argyll Jacket, the Braemar has the same style cuff as a Prince Charlie whereas the Argyll has a gauntlet cuff, really the cuff style is a matter of choice, I find that the Braemar looks more dressy than the Argyll mostly due to cuff detail.
    For Illustration purposes

    This is a Braemar with waistcoat from Hector Russell


    This is a Harris Tweed Argyll I was lucky enough to find used in a local tartan shop

    Please excuse my hair in that last shot I was sorely in need of a cut.

    ties and tweeds

    Minor but related tangent....
    What is the rabbles opinion on tie options with a tweed jacket.
    -Should we stick with a tweed/ wool tie or can a solid silk/ polyester tie be pressed into service?

    -Should colour match the jacket or highlight a colour of the tartan?

    I am tending towards the way that McMurdo is doing it in the above pictures but wanted to know the opinions and options.
