    As a fan of the black shirts and coloured ties, I think you look just fine. I respect and appreciate the guidelines of Highland attire, but I also enjoy adding my own twists. I am not trying to wear a $50 with a home made jacket and pass it off at a Burns night. I like the charcaol tweed argyle and traditional worsted wool kilts I own and wear, so I am not to concerned about adding a newer, hipper twist with the black dress shirt and tie.

    Looks good as is Chase. Very sharp and very well pulled together.

    here are the new pictures, sans-matching flashes:




    I added the pocket square in the green tie/black shirt picture in the hopes of distracting Jamie from the fact that it's still a black shirt

    I think I'm going to go with black shirt green tie, so thanks for the recommendation on that, AA.

    Like the green tie and pocket hankie. Have seen " Wicked" and it is a good musical. Unless it is opening night a lot of theatre goers don't dress up like they used to. The colour of the shirt should reflect the formality of the event.

    If only we could have had white shirt, green tie, and green pocket square!

    sigh

    I hope it was a wonderful time.

    You do have to admit that the right pocket square adds a little refined "zest" to one's outfit.

    Cheers

    If you are going with the Green tie, I'd say wear the white shirt, it gives the outfit some needed balance, with the Red tie the Black shirt does not bother me as much. The pocket square is a nice touch as well.

    I agree with McMurdo, I would go with thw white shirt to break things up a little. I think the green tie goes well with the green in your kilt btw.

    I personally like the look of the white shirt in both pictures. When I scrolled down, I was like "ooohhh...I like that". I say keep the pocket square, though.

    Looking "wicked" sharp, indeed, as we say here in Beantown!

    The pocket square is a nice touch, and the Wicked green flashes will definitely be a great addition.
