I've always liked the look of this shirt but didn't think it would work on me. Until I arrived in Dumfries for the Ferintosh Burns Weekend and British Airways still had custody of my luggage.

I went to the local kilt shop for some clothes to change into (out of hte ones I'd been in for something like 30 hours). Got a kilt, belt, buckle, hose and a jacobite shirt in black. REALLY like it. There will be more in my closet's future. If I can find a pic I'll add it in when I get home.
