Hello! Just registered here!
Hey everyone!
Thought I would post a greeting to everyone here, and get to know a few of you.
Me, I Live in London, and I have been a fan of kilts for years! I am English, and hope that doesn't ruffle any Scottish feathers! Fashion and making style statements are things which I am enthusiastic about. Personally, I don't see why females should have all the fun and freedom, when expressing their sartorial side. I have a couple of kilts, they are not the full 8 yards (Will get one later, when I have enough to spend on a well made one) but they are great for Summer wear. I own a black one, and a red tartan one. The classic red tartan style (forget the name).
I enjoy teaming it up with a plain white shirt, knee high socks with the red garter and sporran. Or perhaps dressing it up with a blazer and tie. My girlfriend thinks I am slightly nuts, lol, but to me, its not about being a sheep and doing as everyone else does, but as simply enjoying ones right to be creative, stylish, and darn cool in the process (I mean that literally..)
I took a bunch of pics when I last wore my red kilt at Canary Wharf, London, and got a bunch of stares and smiles of passers by. Not sure how I post them here though.
Anyway, enough rambling from me. In a nutshell, kilts are amazing. And guys need to be less afraid of venturing into kilt territory!
