    Kilt on! Let no man tell you otherwise, you wear what you want, and where you want! There is great honor and pride in the kilt, and when you put it on you also wear that pride and honor like a badge. I know when I'm kilted I stand a bit taller, walk a bit more confidently, and hold my head higher.

    So go ahead and strut around Paris kilted..... Eiffel Tower? Meh, look at that gentleman in the kilt!

    Yes, that's my experience too. I'm in Paris quite a lot: Parisians love a snappy dresser, and interesting clothes, so that adds to it. Also it marks you as "not-English" (sorry)

    I've gotten an "Ooh la la" from some sweet young French girls, so I'd take that as a positive sign that the French like kilts.

    Paris Pics - well sort of

    Wore my kilt at Disneyland Paris today. It seemed to go down quite well ! Might wear it whilst sightseeing tomorrow.
    (Apologies for the poor pics, but the camera on my phone isn't that good)
