 New tweed waistcoat
After two agonizing months of waiting, my Gaelic Themes tweed waistcoat from USA Kilts finally arrived. Despite the 90˚F (32˚C) heat, I just had to get dressed up and take a few pics:
These don't quite do the color justice, so I'll probably take more this Saturday a bit earlier in the day (and when it's hopefully not quite as hot so I can actually stand to be in direct sunlight). But still, I was too excited not to share it immediately. 
A big thank you is in order to Rocky and his crew, for answering all my questions via email and in person, as well as helping me choose the perfect tweed from the swatchbook (Marton Mills' Loden Fen, in case you were wondering) back when my kilt was still the 8-yard length of fabric I'd just picked up from their shop...and of course, being able to try on one of the waistcoats they had in stock to make sure I got the perfect fit certainly didn't hurt.
