Keepers of the Kingdom

[Jock Scot]

I meant no disrespect of course. Having not met the men I have no idea of their caliber. It's hard to gauge a person just by photo's. In this day and age we have "respectable" men, bilking billions from the common folks. So take my question with a grain of salt. Having viewed many of your posts and sorta knowing what sort of man you are I do not doubt they are honest to goodness men of substance. I appologize if I raised any hackles

It was a fair question------ not a hackle raised-------so no offence taken.

In the first photo, I'm not sure if I'm a fan of his outfit. The waistcoat is a bit much and the hose are really distracting. When compared to the other photos of the men wearing classy and timeless looks, he looks so dated and kitchy.

This picture is a prime example of us highlanders not worrying too much about all this matching up business.

You do realise that as a Gordon, that is your Chief you're talking about?

What I like about the way they dress, is even though they are very elegant, Its the simplicity of their attire.

Interesting observation there. Nearly always with Highland attire the "less is more" school of thought is the one that really works. As opposed to the "wear everything" theory, including the kitchen sink!

Isn't that what Lord Mountbatten (may light perpetual shine upon him) once advised a young HRH the Duke of Rothesay?

He might be my Chief, but he's not my fashion icon!

That's too bad. You have much to learn, young one.

This photo was my inspiration for a pair of yellow hose with my Iowa tartan.
