The Highland day attire shown above reminds me of the wonderful illustrations in this wee book, in which I have a copy of:

Attachment 11367

Attachment 11368

Attachment 11369

Attachment 11370

I've got the same wee book, but have the 1999 edition

So have I. Just ordered a secondhand copy from that online trading site after reading Kyle's post - cheers mate!

Lochinvar - welcome from Dorset in the UK. Not been here long myself. You'll have fun!

Notice that there is a MacMillan in the group! We are pretty snappy dressers! LOL!

I really like the golden yellow waistcoat to the far left of the first picture.

And a Macpherson too!

I really like the caption that says, "Kilts are fastened with two safety pins."

Apparently the writer didn't do his research.
