Wearing the haori with jeans

I love traditional Japanese fashion but I'm a bit of a tomboy. Whenever I wear the yukata or kimono I feel really uncomfortable, especially because I'm a Westerner with larger proportions so I don't feel "right" wearing these clothes. I own some haori jackets and would feel a lot more comfortable wearing them with an undershirt and some black jeans when I attend upcoming spring festivities like matsuri, hanami etc. However I don't want to go out in public wearing a haori and black jeans if Japanese people will think it's weird or offensive. Is it okay to wear the haori as part of a casual, western-style outfit? Is there any etiquette I should be aware of when I wear the haori in public?
