And rightly so - it is a long-repealed act. My wearing of the kilt to work on Aug. 1 stemmed from when I first ordered a kilt. After it arrived, I mentioned it to a coworker and word spread from there. Eventually I had a number of people asking when I was going to wear it. Since I didn't have a specific reason to, I dragged my feet a bit, but when I realized the historical event associated with Aug. 1, I thought I would call that reason enough and give folks what they asked for.

It has now become a bit of a tradition and one of two days that I wear a kilt to the office every year (the other being April 6, National Tartan Day).
