I don't post very often as I tend to write in early memo style but I had to on this one. One of the reasons (on the spur of the moment) I ordered my first kilt back in June is that I was in a severe rut and needed something to jumpstart myself out of boredom. Things have been VERY different since that first one arrived. I had gotten to be a terrible homebody (even when we travel I'd want to just go to happyhour, dinner and then back to the hotel). Now when I get in from the office and my partner suggests we go somewhere I'm much more apt to say "Let me put on a kilt and we're out the door". It's fun!

More to the point my third kilt arrived from Pittsburgh Kilts yesterday. It was a custom order (fabric wise) that Jeff and I conferred over for some time. The base color is close to a royal blue and it has pineapples and palm trees on it. How out of the box is that?? .......... Now while the traditionalists are getting up off the floor (or cleaning off their screens) I will say that the kilt is excellently made. I don't know a lot about kilts but I do know a bit about fabric and sewing (from my folks) and this is a very well made garment. It fits and hangs nicely and quite frankly I love it.

Out of the box is fun and it never hurts to keep others guessing.
