A better choice might be a black changing bag with elastics on the sleeve, 
as it is useful for other tasks as well, e.g. to retrieve film when cameras 
jam - but it's bigger. Make one yourself at 
http://darkroomsource.com/changingbag.htm

In a pinch, do it under a jacket or coat. You should be able to change 
lenses blindfolded.

OTOH, that clear bag may be useful if it rains - stretch a hole for the 
lens & continue.
