    Re: floor length womens kilts

    My wife has at least 4 tartan skirts/dresses. They range from the modestly short (Just above the knee) to floor length. I think she looks absolutely amazing in all of them. For her longer tartan dresses, it seems to me that they are a very lightweight fabric (I really have no idea what I'm talking about here) and some are lined. All have some type of pleating in the back.

    Also, for the longer dresses, I've seen her really dress them up, or wear them with a simple sweater or turtle neck in the colder months.

    Re: floor length womens kilts

    I can't help it, I am a red blooded male after all, I admit to all that a tartan mini skirt worn by the right shaped female takes some beating. However the long tartan skirt runs a very close second! Regardless of age and shape of the lady it is very elegant and with the skills that you ladies have, can be "dressed" up or down for the occasion.

    From a man's point of view, I recall well, one particular long tartan skirt that a very comely young lady wore to a smart drinks do, who managed to engineer a slit in the side of her long skirt to reveal ,every now and then, a very shapely leg-------rather a lot of it------not that I was really looking------but------well-------one could not fail to notice!

    I my view, a long tartan skirt is almost a "must have" in any lady's wardrobe.

    Ha! You men are all dogs!
    Fall is in the air and soon the Billie kilts will be put away until next summer.
    I like the kilt Chrystal is wearing...matches the dogs hair too. I need one in wolfhound and black.

    Apologies for leading you astray but before you go dont forget the plaid and the brooches to go with the skirts. Then theres the boots or shoes and a nice purse.
    um........ I am sure I have forgotten something.
