[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wearing a kilt to where? Isn't it a special occasion type of item and definitely not in 100 degree weather.[/quote]

This. Even in Scotland, men don't just wear kilts whenever they feel like it. It's like a tux or a ballgown. Yes, some people just wear them whenever, but they're trying to make a statement or are eccentric or something.[/quote]

Yes. My male Scottish relatives wear kilts to weddings, which makes for very good wedding pictures. But they don't wear them to much else.

If you tried for the kilt, you'd have to accessorize properly to avoid looking like Axl Rose. The whole outfit, if I can remember this right, involves a short jacket, sporran (sort of a fur bag) and a dirk/dagger in the socks. The dagger really completes the look (lots of fighting in Scotland), but you might have trouble entering government buildings with it. Plus, be prepared to answer questions about which clan your tartan represents. It could end up being a lot of work....[/quote]
