For me, nearly all those combinations work well. You obviously have an eye for color and pattern. I'm not sure about the Kelly Green, but that`s just personal preference.

As Monty Burns would say - "Excellent!"

Thanks for posting those, Rex.

I try to stick to my seasonal skin tone colors in my clothing, and a lot of tartans seem to have colors I really shouldn't wear. It just makes life a little easier to have a solid color kilt, or even a shadow tartan.

Rabbit or squirrel? (Of course - wabbit, eh Doc?)

Yes, that would be rabbit totem.

I'm the garden bunny in the marmalade grove, te he.

I revolt at combining plaids/tartans but I used to wear a dark grey plaid shirt with my solid black kilt, all the time. It looked a lot like Rons last picture.

Well, except that Ron is a lot better looking than I am....*grin*

Ron, can I adopt you as my kilt mac'daddy? This thread has got me thinking. A khaki kilt is a blank slate...Being the hippie that I am, I think it would be awesome to make on in some rather earthy tie dye. Or maybe a patchwork front apron! Or beads and embroidery! Oh man oh man...Theres a music festival I go to every year. The past 3 years theres been this one guy with his tent, and every year he lets people paint on his tent. It has some really neat images on it. That would be cool to do with a kilt. Just give it to different friends with artistic abilities, and have them add to it.
