My 1st kilt wearing outside of Scottish Games

I bought my 1st kilt from Highland Kilt Company at last weeks Scottish Games in Altamont, NY. They had a bunch of them priced below 100 bucks, so right in my range. I got one that is close to Black Watch, though I'm not sure it is exactly. I need to do more research. I hope within the next month to get a semi-traditional kilt in Ancient Campbell from USA Kilts. But for right now, it was simply a matter of getting up nerve to wear my kilt, so off to get gas for the pick-up and then Lowe's for replacement window glass. You could say I was casual, but that's only because all I have right now is a kilt. The sporran belt that came with the kilt is way too large, so that needs help. Plus I need to get some hose next I guess, and maybe a big black belt with a Campbell buckle. That needs to wait till I get a more traditional kilt. Until then, this is what I'm wearing, and will continue to wear for casual use.

Hope all you good lads and lassies are having a great day!

Thank you sir. I am glad I had the nerve to do it. You see, my wife is gone for the day, and that made it easier... Basically, now that I have been out for normal weekend stuff, I'll keep it on. In the meantime, I need to get ready to order a custom kilt. Should have the cash in a month. It's hard being Scottish, tight with the dollar, and buying kilt wear!
