I spent New Years at a party in Inverness and it was my first chance to wear my full kilt, brogues and prince charlie. My Scottish friend showed me how to tie my brouges and he said they needed to be as tight as possible to stop them falling down, which I did but throughout the night I had to keep pulling them up - the attached photo shows me (white sporran) with my laces fallen down to illistrate what I mean.

Anyone have any advice on how to keep the laces up? I have a burns supper at the end of the month and I don't want to trip on them when dancing

Many thanks
