Maple Leaf tie

Here is my new Maple Leaf tie from Cyndi at The Thistle Stop.
Sorry no kilt yet

But my wife did go shopping with me to pick out the coordinating shirt

Dana, maybe I'll need to loan you my Maple Leaf BearKilt so that you can take a proper picture. After seeing that, maybe "someone" will like the look?

Bring it on Jimmy! How soon can you have it here?

Although I'm not sure it would go around my waist

You do look a bit slimmer than me.

And you're right, I'll bet if she saw it all put together like that she'd like it.

Nice tie!

Oh, and it looks like she did a good job picking the shirt!

Dana,

You be one sharply dressed dude

The Maple Leaf is one great tartan, it is sooooo cool 8)

You look really sharp mate

Take up Jimmys offer

I would be nice to have a good kilted picture of you.

Dana,

Grand...you and your wife have done grand with the tie and the shirt -- that is a great colour! :mrgreen:

Cheers,

Todd

Thanks for the compliments lads. My wife thinks I look the best in those colors.

Maybe we should start a XMarks kilt loan service.
Like a commercial joint only just charge for shipping (not like I could contribute since I don't own a kilt

).

You know, for that special occasion

Hmmmm....me thinks I need a shirt that colour to go with my maple leaf kilt too.

Great looking tie and shirt Dana. Maybe Tartan Day celebrations will show your wifey the joys of tartan even more.

You gotta love the Maple Leaf tartan. I love that you can slap almost any earth toned colour with it, and it looks great.

A very nice example of good colour co-ordination there Dana. I tend to go for plain shirts in rust or bottle green to wear with my Maple Leaf 8 yarder, but I like the look of your choice very much.

By the way, that is one very nice tie, but you won't wear it with a tartan (even, Maple Leaf) kilt - when you get one - will you? Please promise me that you won't. It will look good with a plain kilt however, possibly a bottle green or beige one.
