    Now, we've just got to find the right shoes.

    She looks great, and looks like she is really enjoying the day.

    Thanks for the compliments. I'll pass them along.
    She did enjoy the day, which was very nice to see. She's of German heritage, but has no real "connection" to it. She's also just finishing her first year of grad school, and we were glad to get out and do something different.
    The kit she's wearing was bought at the Wolfstone Kilt Co.'s tent. She was very pleased with the way they size garments, and with the attention they gave her.
    We plan to have some pics taken with her in this outfit and me in my PC and use them as Christmas cards this year.

    Cool idea, definately not your run of the mill photo cards.

    Hello ladies (gents too!),
    I realize that since this comes from the catwalk, it might not be exactly practical, but I thought it worth bringing to the table. I will not mention what the guy is wearing however.... Think this may be from Dressed to Kilt....











    Enjoy!

    Actually I like her dress a lot.

    The fellow's kilt looks like a very nice tweed one and if I looked like that I would be tempted to walk around bare chested too.

    However he does need to be told "pants OR kilt, NOT BOTH!!!"


    Cheers

    I agree. It might work for women's fashion, such as tights and a skirt, but for the fellas, pick one or the other, please!

    Here are a few more.






    Slainte!

    Right...uh-huh. He needs to be told to take something else off.

    At any moment you must be prepared to give up who you are today for who you could become tomorrow.
