    Family Pix

    We're having family pix for that nasty holiday in Dec. I'm wearing my SWK Standard Stewart Black kilt.

    Now my question. What color shirts/hose combos would look good for a family pix? I have white hose & the matching flash. Just looking for options.

    Maybe black hose & shirt to match prevailing black in tartan. See in my album.

    With my Black Stewart, I've gone two different ways. First is with a white button down shirt, white hose, and red or dark blue garters/flashes. Then I've worn a dark blue shirt with dark blue hose and red garters/flashes. I always look at my Black Stewart as my dress up kilt. I'd send pix but my computer is having problems.

    As a MacGregor, holiday colors are easy to pick... my kilt is already red and green.

    You could do something like this

    Remember the shirt and hose do not have to match, you can do something tasteful and be a bit different.

    Thanx for the pix. I'm really diggin the black shirt/hose. However I already have a white shirt/hose thing.

    I'm also kinda thinking maybe a darker red shirt w/ red hose. My next question, is where do I get red hose? In the limited looking I've done, most have about 6 colors and red isn't one.

    The only ones I have found readily available are the Lewis Hose at the Scottish Tartans Museum gift store. That's where I got mine.

    Kilt and highland wear just looks so good. All three of you look great. Any of those outfits would do well for family photos.
