So I made the plunge and wore a kilt to work on Friday. We don't officially have a dress code but pretty much everyone dresses as business casual.

All in all in was a very good experience and I'm glad I did it. Of course I was asked "The Question" so many times it made my head spin. However, thanks to some snappy comebacks (but not offensive, of course) I was able to keep things a mystery. I had a lot of people tell me, "nice kilt" and over heard one of the security guards at the front desk tell another gaurd: "It's not a skirt, you idiot. It's a kilt; he's Scottish." It made me laugh.

But I think the best part about wearing the kilt was that during our donut break (we always have donuts on Fridays) it got people talking about their ancestries, regardless of where they were from.

As for the kilt, it was unseasonably warm and extremely windy but I seemed to manage fine even when we out for lunch. The biggest problem I had was trying to sit down on my chair without getting the pleats messed up or sitting on a big pile of pleats.

Anyway, thanks for all the support and advice from everyone here. It turned out to be a very wonderful experience.
