    Ordered my Formal Outfit

    In anticipation of an upcoming cruise, I have finally ordered a formal kilt outfit. I already have the kilt, so I didn't need to get that. I've decided to go the whole route and even ordered a fly plaid. I decided on a Brian Boru jacket, mainly because I like the way it's cut better than the Prince Charlie.

    Now I'm going to have to pay down the credit card so I can afford the cruise!

    Where did you order from? Is there a link for us to check it out?

    I ordered from Kiltstore. They offer a made to measure jacket, and I figured if i was spending that much money it would be made to fit me. Everything else is pretty standard, but since I was already ordering from Kiltstore, I put them on the same order.

    I ordered:
    Brian Baru jacket, made to measure
    Fly Plaid in MacIan tartan
    Five stone Plaid Brooch, with Topaz
    Black Rabbit Sporran with Celtic Dress Cantle
    Stone Set Kilt Pin, with topaz
    Sgian Dubh with Topaz Stone Top
    Celtic Oval Cufflinks

    In case you're wondering, topaz is my birthstone, and the yellow stone will match the yellow stripe in the MacIan tartan.

    It's going to be a major Jones waiting for all this to get to me.:eek:

    No doubt. It sounds very very nice though.

    There's nothing like wearing the whole nine yards. Be sure to send us a picture.

    Congrats!

    Assuming it all gets to me before the cruise with no problems, I plan to have a picture (or two or three) taken by the photographers on the ship. You can bet I'll post it here!8)
