    New Years Eve in Paris

    First of all, Happy New Year to you all!! I hope the new year will bring joy and happiness to you and your kin!

    This year I took my best girl to Paris to celebrate New Years Eve. For some reason we only ended up with one picture of me kilted, but as a comfort I think it is a quite wonderful picture of my lass and me.



    This was my first time kilted outside the house, and I must say that the experience was most pleasing! I do not think I have ever received so much attention before in my life, and it was quite exiting! There where quite a few giggles and laughs, but also a lot of great comments and people who wanted to take a picture with me. I think the best comment I heard was a Briton we passed on the street who exclaimed with joy in his voice to his girlfriend "that guy's wearing a kilt!!" If not hooked before, I am definitely so now!

    Excellent pic, both looking good.
    I am glad you found kilt wearing such a positive experience. Once you start wearing a kilt you quickly become addicted and will want to wear it every day.

    You both look good, and the outfit you wear is very nice.

    Of course, I have found over the years that being with a pretty girl tends to get me added attention, and you lady is lovely, too.

    Undoubtedly, good Sir! A fine lass makes all the difference in that context!

    Hi,

    Very handsome couple, indeed. Best wishes for the New Year.
    In theory there is no difference between theory and practice but in practice there is.
