I hate taking pictures..especially of myself! But I was hoping to get som e input. Please excuse the ridiculous faces and even worse.. the hideous couch!

Next weekend is Tartan Day and then the second weekend following I am attending a weekend bagpiping workshop that has a concert on Friday night and a cocktail party on Saturday. I have gone away numerous times in my life and have NEVER though about what I am going to wear.. until NOW.

A few months I purchased an Irish National 'outfit' on Ebay from the Scottish Kilt Company. As I really had no clue (and still don't) about kilts, I went with luck of the draw. For the price I paid I have to say, it's not so bad. I then also purchased (again from ebay) an SWK Saffron Shadow Tartan. I really like the way both look. Here's my dilemma....

What do I wear where?

Here's some of the combinations I thought were kinda ok...




or.. SUPER casual...



with workbooots or sneakers or just walking shoes...

What does the rabble (if I may address you as such since I am still so new) think of these?

Of course I know I am not wearing a kilt pin, not do I have flashes in all pictures.. I was just testing the waters to see what was decent looking.

Thanks for any input you may have....
