A kilt on What Not to Wear

[Squeaky McMurdo]

Did anybody happen to see that episode? The woman pulled her husband's kilt out of the closet and made Clinton try it on. He did it willingly and even he (a big-shot fashion guru) thought it looked sexy.

I saw it about a month ago, but since there's been all this talk about Stile. E. Coyote's blog and his biased advice to never wear a kilt unless you live in Scotland, I thought I would mention this.

I've always thought it would be fun to be on that show (except for the public humiliation that is) but let me tell you they can throw out everything in my wardrobe except any of my kilts or jackets / waistcoats.

I'd wrestle them to the ground and make them wear spandex over that one!

Ever since I first watched that show, I've thought that a person with fashion sense could make a bundle as a fashion consultant for people (like me) who need help realizing what they look like and how sharp they could look if they had the right clothes and the right advice.

Take the idea. Run with it. Make a mint now and thank me later.

I'm sure all of us could look pretty darn spiffy with $5,000 of someone else's money to spend on clothes

You could get five really nice kilt outfits for that without any problem.

i left the gentlemen a nice comment and posted some links on another blog of his "10 Things Every man should own"

Presidential
Formal
Semi-Formal
Casual
Grunge

Yep, five would cover all the areas the contemporary male would need to dress appropriately for

OOOO, but how fun to go buy one kilt and spend the rest on all the accessories.. Then when they do their fashion show come out wearing the same kilt for all your outfits and demo the versatility of the kilt for all occasions.

They can all kiss my red haired Celtic butt. Why should I (or any of you) be bothered by what someone on TV or in a news paper has to say? Be you and be happy that way.

It would be a waste of show on you Dee, every time I see you you are always dapper and well coordinated.

LOL, I was thinking "I should nominate my husband for that show, tell him that if he's picked to go to a kiltmaker in New York first (Brown Brother Harriman & Co. was the only one that sounded like they make traditional kilts that I found doing a websearch) buy a kilt or two or three..., a jacket, and several hose, and then appease them."

I figure the worst they could do is give him a corney haircut--which I can easily cut or buzz off.

So us lasses can nominate our men and send them kilt-shopping in New York. The only forseeable problem with this is that some of you lads may end up without facial hair...
