    Replacing lost tassels is a pain, pricewise. Lost a tassel off my black rabbit fur and minimum cost of just one replacement tassel was around $12 not counting S+H. Rearranged tassels, one on each...
  11. Jacket looks good with the Kilt

    To be honest, you look to be a young guy and the best accessory you can add to a kilt is a set of six-pack abs. You look good for a night out at the pub, a house concert, or dancing at the club. ...

    Re: Sarong or So Wrong? One Thing Leads to Another
