For your consideration, daring or dumb?

Question about that sporran. Where did you get it, how much, and what is the quality?

Yaish,

The sporran is from The Celtic Croft. It is from their economy line of sporrans and was about $45. I find it very attractive and very reasonable quality for the money (ditch the poor quality chain strap that comes with it). McMurdo, myself, aswell as a few others have found this to be a great dress sporran for people who can't stand the thought of dropping several hundred dollars on a dress sporran.

I like it, I think you look terrific. The only concern is that I have found that a lightweight sporran is best for SCD. (too painful otherwise)

Graham,

You are very right Graham ! I lowered the sporran a notch on my strap and it still bounced around and made the most annoying click of the cantle tip striking the belt during the "The Sailor". Next time for dance I'll wear my plain black tassled one or maybe I need an all black Freelander with a pewter button.

Would you consider some of the bar & buckle officer mess dress shoes, also known as dancing shoes? IMHO, the buckles on the shoes would contribute a pleasing visual reference point to the overall outfit.

w2f,

Those look very nice. I already have a pair of fancy dress shoes and may have worked out a deal with a friend for some actual ghillie brogues though.

I shouldn't pile on as I agree with everyone else but since I've not used the word "smite" this week so I'll post anyway.

Panache, that is the perfect outfit to go out on the town for some very elegant smiting. Think James Bond.

Brilliant!

Dee,

Now you just need to work in "gloaming" and "perambulate" into your conversation over the next couple of days and you are set!

Panache, you make one very smartly dressed goth.

Alex,

I guess I'd better take out the Wicked Tinker's "Banger for Breakfast" out of the CD player and put in Bauhaus' "Swing the Heartache"

Everybody else,

Thanks for the opinions, looks like the outfit is a keeper.

Cheers

Jamie
