Wearing two kilts at once.
Recently I've lost a bit of my gut (and I'm not looking for
it either) and have been moving the buckles on my kilts.
I didn't bother with the heavy wook kilts because it was
it was pretty warm, and I had plenty of time before cold
weather set in.
Now I'm recovering from shoulder surgery and can't
use one hand at all. Of course now the weather turned
cold and I'm stuck without a warm kilt that fits. So I
decided to put a heavy wool one over a cotton canvas
one.
Other than being a lot of weight it seemed to do
the trick. I really like the feel of wool against my
skin, and I'm sure it would be warmer that way,
but reversing the layering didn't work.
Now I'm thinking my belted plaid under the large
kilt may really be the thing to wear when the
mercury goes down out of sight. I just need
to find a way to pleat it with one hand. (The
belted plaid, while 100% wool, is pretty light,
having been made for the warmer renfaire
season.)
You may have guessed I'm not too concerned
about how it looks, and you would be right.
You might be surprised that the combination
I wore today didn't look at all unusual. The
second combination may be a little more challenging,
but could probably be similarly fashionable.
