Hopefully, I will be able to afford (time and money) to stay and explore Holland, and maybe spend a couple of days in Scotland and the U.K. also.

Looking forward to meet you

Must admit, I have worn only black with my X Marks kilt thus far!

I agree when there's also black in the tartan and for dress occasions, but both black and (navy)blue are "cold" colours, so I think it looks very nice to wear brown leather with a dominant blue kilt...to add some "warmth" to the outfit....casual.
Besides...brown leather looks awesome with oatmeal
