    I am Kilted...at work!

    Well, I decided to do it today. I have just finished my 2nd kilt (see the DIY section) and I decided I was going to wear it to work today. I don't have any pictures yet, but I'm putting it together with a black turtleneck with rampant lion embroidered on it, and with black day sporrran and black boots.
    Comfortable but dressy enough for an office I think.
    I've only seen one person, the secretary and she went nuts! She just loved it!
    Later on today I'll let you know how the rest of the office takes it.
    Man this feels good!!!!

    Holy cow!! This is a good day! I just noticed that I'm a Samurai!!

    Fantastic!

    It'll take a few days/weeks for coworkers to get used to the kilt and get all their questions and comments out, but they'll get used to it and you'll be home free and comfie on the job.

    Looks fantastic and the turtleneck was a perfect choice to compliment your kilt. Very well done! Wish more men would do this.

    I just got back from our Thanksgiving lunch with all of the staff and I got nothing but compliments and respectful questions. People were genuinely curious about everything but it was all very encouraging.
    The worst thing that was said was by a lady who said it was "cute" but she meant it well.
    Many thanks to those of you here who have commented. :biggrin:
