    I like it. You could also wear that same combination with a blue tie for a second look.

    Here are the two sporrans I have in my arsonal to wear.
    The rabbit is from Stillwater . The horse hair is a replica of the 79th NY state Militia circa 1863.

    My hose colours are Gray, and green, I have blue and black as well. If a picture will help i will gladly post more. The wedding is at 4:30 pm EST today, So i wanna wrap this up fast so I can get on more pressing matters, like how to trim and style my beard and which malt am I going to put in my flask!!

    Perhaps a photo of you wearing the outfit would help, as it is I'd wear the outfit with rabbit sporran and the green hose, I may or may not even bother with the garter ties. I may even leave off the waistcoat.

    Re: Outfit critique

    I'm not sure about either the tie or the shirt, more so the tie as it seems a little bright

    Grey hose to tone with the jacket

    Rabbit sporran

    That's my suggestions but others may disagree

    Defintely agree with Glenn on this one. A picture of yourself attired would help a lot. I know once or twice I have mad a faux pas and someone has been kind enough to point it out for me before the occassion.

    Re: Outfit critique

    Myself, I like the outfit. The hose could work with either: grey with the jacket or (I think I prefer) the green with the kilt. I would NOT go with the horse-hair sporran - too much for a guest. And I can see why you've chosen that tie. It is bright but I think it works.

    And I would also like to see how all this comes together.
