Dressage Schooling show apparel ideas?

Going to be doing some schooling shows in the near future. Last year I showed in the Fall, so a vest over a long sleeved shirt was weather appropriate and neat. For summer, I am thinking my polar fleece vest would look very out of place and ridiculous. I could wear a polo, but the problem is I do not feel comfortable with how I look with the polo tucked into my breeches, the look is not flattering on me, and I know that my self consciousness will translate into my ride. Has anyone seen any light weight summer vests anywhere? Or even polo type shirts that are banded at the bottom so you get the tucked in look without actually having to tuck them in? Would it be absolutely awful to not tuck my shirt in?

If you don't want to wear a tucked in shirt, then you might be better off just wearing a show jacket, even if it's just a schooling show.

you always want to wear what you feel comfertable in. but in dressage you want the cleanest look possible and that goes along with tucking your shirt in. i know you said its a schooling show but could you wear a show jacket? it will cover that area of your body. do what you feel comfertable but remember if you wear a polo tucked into breeches with a belt you look very profesional no matter what your body shape is.

extremely you could placed on something you choose in a coaching tutor. i could advise wearing your brown breeches with your white shirt or a polo and no coat. Black gloves are oftentimes favorite at decrease tiers.
