    First time dressing up in a kilt

    So I've worn a kilt pubbing a few times & also at Highland Games, but Saturday we were attending an evening wedding so this was my first opportunity it dress it up!

    I'm wearing 5-yard USAK Wool kilt, the jacket & vest are also from USAK. The socks (which I couldn't be happier with) are hand knit from New House Highland. I wanted to add a little "pop" so I have a purple neck tie, garter ties & shoelaces :-) Really happy with the way it all came together. I'll try to post some better pictures if I find some.

    The jacket is the "Wallace Collection", which is a little more contemporary jacket. Single button, Crail sleeves, no epaulets, etc...

    My thoughts exactly! Upon further inspection your outfit looks very good.
