Even a waistcoat (on the diagonal) and kilt in matching tartan might be too much. Mind you, tartan pocket flaps on a charcoal wool waistcoat would be a nice touch.
    Well, isn't the kilt in itself just a little too much ?

    Maybe I just like being a little too much, some times.

    Robert, we wear kilts to try to blend into our environment hence the need for hunting tartans. None of us on this forum want to stand out. You look splendid as usual.

    Robert, Grant's favored prey is la femme qui soulève des kilts (I think that is the correct translation ). He has not quite grasped the concept that they hunt us, not the other way around.
    Having looked at your pictures here and on Lady Chrystel's website, I need to think about sending her some Sackett tartan in poly-viscose.
