modern kilt outfit...any ideas?

[MysticMead]

Can't get much more modern than this and still go out for the paper!

I don't know... even this might be a bit more modern

[Finn]

Ok...
UK (any UK)
a carpenter's belt
socks (not hose)
Doc Martens
t-shirt (preferably Firefly or a band)

More formal:
TFCK pinstripe or a nice tweed I saw online.

It appears as though you've startled the gentleman on the TV...

I think we're having entirely too much fun with this.
I know I am!

[Mr. MacDougall]

Eye bleach! Where's my eye bleach! Aaaaaagh!

isn't that the point??? to have fun... well that and make MacDougall run around begging for eye bleach...

[James MacMillan]

Yup! That's the point!

Ain't X-Marks grand.

Never, ever forget. Semantics aside, you are a dude wearing a skirt. That gives you license to wear what you want.

Personally, I don't dress much differently, kilted or otherwise. The vast majority of my wardrobe naturally goes together. Heck, I've worn a tropical print shirt and flip flops with my utilikilt.

However. Don't ever, ever, ever wear white socks with a kilt, or sandals and socks for any reason. Both of these instantly mark you as a goober.

I am prone to wearing my sporran with my UK and wearing my kilts on my hips vice above my navel. Both are offenses that would cause the pious around here would mock me as an infidel. However, I figure there is no reason being different if you are going to be different in the same way as everyone else who has decided they want to be different too.

You have a good idea already of what looks good on you. go with it.

I'm not a dude....i'm a dude-ette! Anywho...I don't even think those staements above are hard and fast rules. For instance, I've worn white popcorn hose pushed down with black boots, black kilt and white shirt....and I think it looks decent.
Also, depending on the type of sandal (not all will work) and the type of sock, this can look ok.

but dudettes can do that.....
