About a month ago the firm I work for anounced this years Christmas party theme - Black & White. Every is supposed to dress in just black & white, no colors. I viewed it as an oportunity to get a new kilt. Here it is...a semi-traditional from USA Kilts:

I found a nice stingray skin and made the sporran. Anyway, the above outfit is pretty much what I plan on wearing for the Black & White event. From what I have read the striped pattern of the shirt is probably considered inappropriate with tartan. And I am fairly certain the white collar and cuffs will raise some eyebrows. But the shirt fits the event and my wife likes it (it beats the heck out of the skunk costume she wanted me to wear).

And here is a picture of the kilt dressed down a bit:

And a pleat shot:


I am very pleased with the kilt. And the service from USA Kilts was amazing. The kilt was delivered exactly two weeks from when I placed the order.
