Hello all,
Just dropping a line to introduce myself as the newbie i am. So I absolutely Love kilts and you will never get the standard question from me... If I want to know that bad I will check for myself (wink)....
So I am here to get info and stuff not only on the kilts but on what folks are really liking as far as accessories and shirts and such to wear with the kilts.
I have several kilted friends and well finances tight Christmas is looking like it will be pulling the ol sewing machine out.
I am always looking for new ideas and suggestions. Plus new friends are always a plus so looking forward to any help and new friends!

CWKchic,
Welcome to the forum.

Most of the time I wear a polo-type shirt with my kilt.

Only a few accessories are needed with a traditional tartan kilt for casual wear, such as a sporran and a belt (about 2 inches wide and the same color as the sporran). I also prefer kilt hose, though some just wear regular socks.

Buzz Kidder sporrans are popular as they are relatively inexpensive and well made: http://www.buzzkidder.citymax.com/page/page/512029.htm
Most of the sponsors of this forum sell these sporrans.

Here is a very good deal on a brown leather day sporran and sporran belt from WPG: http://onlinemilitaria.net/shopdispl...2&cat=SPORRANS

Here is a good buy on a casual kilt belt:

For casual wear, I can recommend the inexpensive cotton hose from Sock Dreams: http://www.sockdreams.com/_shop/page...ductID_862.php
