My wife and I just returned from the annual Robert Burns dinner hosted by the Friends of the Scottish Tartans Museum. Thought I'd share a pic of the two of us dressed for the occasion. |

Wonderful photo of you both, Matt, I absolutely love the way you ties the Victorian shirt into the outfit, excellent waistcoat and hose as well.

You looked nice Matt but I really liked your wife's shawl the best.

I recently purchased this shirt from The Gentleman's Emporium. I really like it. It has a subtle white-on-white paisley pattern in the cloth, which drew a lot of compliments, but does not really show in the picture.
The waistcoat and hose are both my wife's handiwork. I married well! |
