Jock Scot's point is right in line with one of my main questions in this thread. While I love looking at old pictures, seeing "romanticized" Highland attire, and marveling at military or piper's uniforms, I don't want to dress that way in my modern civilian life. I do, however, want to have an informed and respectful grasp of tradition.

Let's talk specifics. Obviously weapons are out, but what else should be avoided when it comes to the historical representations of Highland attire shown above?
