Congratulations! I'm a newbie and I "jumped off the deep end" for my first time going kilted. I wore mine to my nephew's birthday party on Saturday. My dad, mom and brother all thought I was crazy. I had never mentioned thinking about getting a kilt to them before showing up at my folks door with it on. They got used to it after a while. (Other than my dad looking my way, laughing and shaking his head.)
