I did pretty good this year, mostly of hand made kilt related clothing made by my loving and genius wife...
First, she made me two band collar shirts with a little extra length. Both are silk but one is a silk broadcloth and the other is a silk and linen blend. I got a black one with a white collar and a cream one (in the photo).
Then she made me a Jacobite blue bonnet--knitted and felted--and a white satin cockade (from a photo and illustration here on this forum...thank you very much).
And lastly, after a lot of research and many mistakes that had to be taken out, she made me a singleton and a third (didn't get it done in time for Christmas) of tartan hose to match my kilt.
I also got a small round "sporran" flask from my daughter.
Here you can see the shirt, bonnet and hose:

and this photo shows the hose a little more closely:
