Personal flair

[Nomad]

I have been on here for a little over a year now and have browsed many of the current and "historical" threads, whilst there are numerous strong opinions both traditional and otherwise I have found that they have educated me enormously and helped guide me in forming my own tastes.

On the whole, as a newbie to kilts, I think the views/guidance of Jock and other traditionalists have been excellent and like many things relating to how we dress I find that using that information to ensure I have the basics correct has given me more confidence in experimenting with different looks.

As an example I do wear my kilt with argyl jacket, waistcoat etc, but I am equally happy to swap out the argyl for a Levi jacket and high quality boots as I have seen this demonstrated well by others on this site.

So, back on thread, personal flair is of course personal, but I do think that if get the basics right then it is less likely that your "flair" will look ridiculous, perhaps eccentric, but then again you're wearing a kilt, why would you not be considered eccentric (unless of course you are surrounded by other kilted persons).
