    Looks great! And you look quite pleased with the purchase.

    I'm really impressed by how well it looks with the blue, as well.

    Thanks!

    That kilt jacket is a difficult colour to convey in photos. It's almost grey, with tinges of blue and green, and in some light almost an olive tinge. Very subtle.

    I can't get over how beautiful that tartan tweed fabric is.

    And I need to take a photo of the pleats, they did a very interesting and nice pleating approach, alternating a brown part of the tartan and a grey part of the tartan. Hunting Stewart has such a huge sett that when you pleat to the stripe you have to alternate. I did say I didn't want the military "catsup & mustard" pleating.

    I realise after seeing that photo that I should probably wear my kilt a bit lower! Oh well.

    My first formal/posed photos of my USA Kilts Marton Mills tartan tweed kilt.

    I've been selling off my extra jackets and sporrans to purchase this Margaret Morrison sporran to go with this outfit.

    it is beautiful
    I love the tartan you chose, it is beautiful. I am wondering why you chose 5 yards as opposed to 8, was it to use it in warm environments?
