    An interesting look...

    I attended the Ligonier (PA) Highland Games this weekend. While shopping, I noticed a rather "interesting" look. I really wanted to take a picture but my camera refused to function until I loaded new batteries, by which time I'd lost the opportunity.

    The subject in question was wearing a Prince Charlie jacket, Jacobite style shirt, horsehair sporran, kilt, no hose and sandals. He certainly got my attention!

    That was me! Never did I expect to see it so soon! And hopefully, it'll be a long time before I see it again!

    ...and you give me a hard time for my contemporary outfits. At least I do a little research and put together things that belong together! A PC with a Jacobite shirt?

    Ha!
    This summer at a medieval event I saw a Jacobite shirt in hunter blaze orange!
    It was at night and had quite the effect.

    But it is so fun to give you a hard time.

    Were they wearing a kilt made from the MacDehglough tartan referenced on this forum last week?
