    Your lady and her outfit are a delight to the eye and a sporran could only hinder the look. In passing, traditionally ladies do not wear a sporran but------------. Perhaps a neat sporran shaped shoulder bag would look just the ticket?
    I have scars from this lass's sword already, so I feel your pain, Jock And I agree that the sporran would take away some of the look. As it stands, there's not really a lot of tartan there! A sporran would just hide what there is... the tiniest sporran Rocky offers might give her the look without too much hindrance. Still, a sporran is a masculine article to me, and I prefer it on men. I think it distracts not only from the lines of tartan, but the lines/curves of the lady herself.

    Check out these custom ladies' bags from Thorfinn (s.k.a. our colleague Turpin).

    Or any small sporran could go with a waist belt or shoulder strap.
