Colin -- many thanks for that last comment, since I'm only 33!

Seriously, though -- you and your wife look grand in the photo. I like the shirt and tie combo -- another sharp way to modernize day wear, INMHO, is a turtleneck with a day jacket.

Looking good.

Leave it up to me to find fault then, but you've already mentioned it. The fuzzy picture. We must see this dapper gentleman and his lovely wife in a better picture. I do hope that you again wear the combination.

Of course I will, even if only to get a clearer picture for you Grant......

Wonderful shot.

Colin,

I guess you might have expected me to be one of those who disapproved of the black shirt/silver tie combination - but, NO! Whilst I would not wear those items myself - at least, not to a wedding - I believe you carry them off to perfection. As has been said by others, that shirt and tie co-ordinate beautifully with the tartan. Well chosen, young sir!

Jill leaves me speechless - she looks stunning (what else) and the two of you together might have stepped from the photo pages of a glossy 'Society' magazine. I mean it!

"I decided to wear my machine sewn 13 oz Lochcarron Weathered MacKenize (from scottishkilts.net) to the weddding instead of the handsewn 16 oz Ancient Watson. I paired itwith my black dress shirt and dark silver tie (which matches the kilt quite well suprisingly)".
You, sir, are a wild man!

Looks great!!

Now you know why I have to try so hard to look good. I will always pale beside my wife

Thanks

Just do what I did and make sure no one is taking photos when you ge tout of the car....

Thanks again for the nice comments gents, and ladies.

I certainly agree with all of the comments above. I am curious about the jacket, though. Is it a regular sports coat or a kilt jacket? Either way, it looks great in the photo!

It's a charcoal tweed argyle and waistcoat from scottishkilts.net. I made the mistake of trying a regular sport coat in my early days of kilting, and they were way too long.
