If the designers' eyes were good enough to have jackets mass produced, there must be harmony between the jacket and buttons. If so, seems to me the button color must be usable elsewhere in the ensemble. In these cases, I've used them in the shirt. Though, I'm not sure I could find a tie for the camel jacket and chocolate shirt. Thoughts?

I wouldn't wear a tie with a chocolate shirt. It's too casual.

Perhaps I could wear it in the current open collar style or under a sweater with the jacket.

The only tie I'm considering is this Metropolitan Museum of Art tie because it is fun and has colors that would be in a couple of ensembles. Its field is black. Either with a black vest or without. A vest may be more formal than the shirt and tie allow.

I like the idea of a sweater. Burgundy or dark green would be perfect. Otherwise I would just wear the shirt, no tie or waistcoat. The waistcoat and shirt are too close in colour and clash with each other. A burgundy or dark green waistcoat in doeskin or moleskin would go nicely with the jacket, but then you'd need a light-coloured shirt for balance.

Thank you. I may have access to a nice green v neck. I'm trying to stay away from light shirts to stay with low contrast ensembles. In summer I'll wear them with light jackets to have low contrast then too.
