    I've been kilted for 3 1/2 months and have my 10th kilt on order. I've become very concious of what shirts, and hose look good with certain kilts. I have even went to the extreme of developing a kilt schedule on an Excel spreadsheet for what combinations I'm going to where on any given day! I was never this concious about color combinations until I started wearing kilts.

    He said it's one of the worst kilt addictions he has ever seen, and does not know of any cure. As a result, he recommended that I never again go bifucated because the discomfort will result in another kilt buying spree.

    He did say, however, that 3/4 turns to check your butt while kilted is completely normal behavior

    Ron, it seems to me that you have got the matter of colour 'co-ordination' pretty well sussed! You have some (as you Americans might say) "pretty sharp" presentations there in those new photos. Well done, and keep up the good work!

    Fortunately there's not much kilt fashion sense out here in the canyonlands to worry about someone snickering too much.

    That doesn't matter at all! Even when there is no-one else to see you, if you know you are looking good and have got it together, then you will feel on top of the world. Besides, you never know when you are going to come across someone who DOES notice these things!

    I promise, if I see any of you guys checking yourselves in the mirror, I'll be perfectly understanding.

    Oi, I actually started buying shirts places OTHER than thrift stores, because I wanted to make sure I had something that would go with the kilt for particular occasions...

    And yes, I check my butt to see how wrinkled the pleats are.

    Thanks all! I definitely needed the chuckle provided by these last few posts. In retrospect, I think that I am going to have to ask my wife's mother (she and my wife's father are visiting for a few days and she (wife's mother) is having a hard time with the kilt, both are in their 70's) if the kilt I am wearing at the time makes my butt look fat! Her response should be priceless and I am sure that I will regret not getting it in video. She is a very sharp woman, originally from Berlin, Germany. She speaks english perfectly after all these years and still has a backbone. She once stopped a purse snatcher with an umbrella. He had reached into the open window of her car at a stop light and as he was running away, she grabbed her umbrella and tapped it on the window frame and yelled "Stop or I'll shoot!". Needless to say, the would-be thief dropped her purse and ran off even mor quickly! So her response to my question might be something other than I expect!

    Why not set it up with your wife, and have her suruptitiously tape it.

    ... or at least plan ahead enough to have a camera set up on a counter, under a jacket or something. With some planning you should be able to catch the whole thing; you'll just have some dead time at the beginning of the tape.

    Iolaus, now you sound like my wife with the digital camera. Click, pause.. no I don't like it lets try it again. Click, pause.. no I don't like it, lets try it again. Click, pause.... well you get the idea. Sometimes I really miss the old film days when you just took a picture and weren't immediately able to determine how good it was, nor really cared!

    Anyway, I will try to get a photo record, but no guarantees!
