You look good, You might try wearing your sporran about an inch higher, this might eliminate the pouched look between the waistcoat and sporran ( I have this same problem). A pocket square would look smart and a cane or walking stick if your outside and a well shaped balmoral.

I have a navy balmoral with a red toorie on order. Already have a straight black cane with a polished stainless head. I'll post more pics when the weather is cooler!

So, without further ado, let the criticism begin!
Like everyone else has said it is spot on. SFCRICK's comment about raising your sporran is also right on the mark. See if you cant get the top of the sporran closer to the red line in the tartan above it as this will give the front of the kilt a nicer, flat, appearance.
Well done.

AB FAB KD!
When this rabble has to get down to pocket squares and whether to wear a bonnet, you know you have nailed it. Anything else is picking nits. Well done you.

IMHO Looks real good. I am not yet at that level with my Highland attire. My only addition to what has been said here is to take it up a notch, I would add the pocket square and use garter ties instead of the flashes.

I don't know if I would have done polka dots with tartan, but, to each his own. Overall, very nice!
