    Flashes

    When selecting them, I thought the white flash would highlight the white line in the tartan. I thought it worked out pretty well, although they do make the outfit look a bit somber in the picture. I am still experimenting with the hose and flashes.

    I think they look great and goes well with the shirt.

    The tartan is called "United States". it is found in the tartan index as No. 2126.

    I like how the tartan turned out and the kilt itself is amazing.

    Ah, you tied your tie, didn't you? Looks good! I took the time to tie mine. With the last name of Wright you could wear the MacIntyre tartan, you know.

    You wear the kilt well.

    I'm with you on the garter ties I absolutely love my Garter Ties, in fact the only person I've ever found who makes wearable flashes is Barb Tewksbury. If I'm wearing any other kilt I wear the garter ties so that they do not dig into my leg. What I was referring to however was the colour choice, while not a bad choice by any means it is a bold one.
