Khaki Military Style look
My Mom made a great thrift store find, a brand new LL Bean "safari" shirt. She gave it to me and I tried to come up with a military inspired outfit.
How did I do?
Cheers

Very nice Jamie, I think you have succeeded. I have a greenish tan swiss army shirt that I wear with my Gordon kilt, brown sporran and belt and boots, I think it looks very military also. Really like the black watch kilt.

A very pukka outfit indeed, sahib!
Good on ya,

My only qualm and it is a small one, but I think it deserves a mention, is that the sporran with the fur does not match, it would to my eye look far more military if in fact you were sporting a plain brown leather sporran.
Having said all that I really like the outfit and think it looks sharp.

Glen,
I agree. A plain brown would have been best. My other sporran choices were my brown and black Freelander (wrong style) or my carved A_Hay! Pictish Boar (too elaborate).

Given the choices you made the right decision, as I said a very nice outfit nonetheless.

Hmmm.. it likes to delete my all caps.
Anyway, yes, it's a good look. Now REPORT!

Very sharp, but I can't help thinking that those hose and flashes look very Boy Scout. Sorry - too many years of getting that combo ready for camp! LOL
I do love the headgear, shirt and kilt, though.

Good looking combination. But I agree with the others, a plain brown sporran would really set the outfit off.

I think the shirt needs some kind of insignia. Otherwise, I salute you.
