    Accoutrements are in the eye of the beholder

    There's accoutrements and then there's accoutrements.

    McElmurry posted this picture, saying “My wife says this young feller can wear whatever color hose he wants.”:

    Well, since there are no kilt police, we can’t stop him. But aside from his white hose, I also feel his choice of tartan out of place.
    Probably there will be several here who disagree with me, but my feeling on white setts like this Gordon Dress is that they are for women’s wear, not men’s evening dress.
    What says the forum?
    Regards,
    Mike

    Methinks Streetcar & the other fellas have the idea for hose choice. (my apology to you "other fellas.") I recognize Kyle placing the ladies under arrest for whatever infraction, but not you other two guys!
    Go, have fun, don't work at, make it fun! Kilt them, for they know not, what they wear. Where am I now?
