Hey guys, I decided to have my girlfriend snap a few new pictures since you guys didnt like the other ones. I got rid of the hat and the tartan neck tie as requested. Tell my what you guys think. Do these look any better? Also would this work well at a formal dinner or something? Minus the fly plaid anyways. thanks guys...

Looks good from here. Plaids, to me, seem pretty formal, I've only really seen them on grooms at weddings in Scotland although they seem more popular stateside.

The casual outfit I have been building has a lot of black in it too so it's nice to get a small impression of what mine will look like. Thanks!

Looks good. Before there was just too much tartan. The only suggestion I have is if you're going to dress that formal I'd get cream or white hose. With those you'd be able to notice the ghillies a bit better.

Awesome looking sporran.

Pretty formal from my point of view. Looks nice though. And I think that I disagree with the cream/white hose. With the black shirt, I think that light hose would clash.

Better overall balance, I'd say. I like the black hose with the black shirt, and that red tie has a lot of punch. Lookin' sharp!

Rex, presuming you were not affected by yesterday's temblor.

Nice set of pics. You seem to wear that sporran well. I'm not a fan of animal sporrans but to each his own.
I think you outfit would have a different feel without the fur & fly.

Cheers,

I think the outfit looks great. Part of what makes it look good is that you look comfortable with it. Wear it with confidence.

And now...

I hate to sound like the fashion police but...

Would you guys wear a Tuxedo with white socks?

The only time to wear white hose is when you are wearing a white shirt and only a white shirt, no jacket. This is a nice informal look.You draw too much attention to your lower half with the white hose. You want the focus on your face.

Young man you look sharp! But I have to ask. When you are sitting down has anybody ever asked if they could pet the dog - not knowing what it actually was?
