    A good Christmas kilt

    Anyone have any ideas on a good "Christmasy" looking tartan for the holidays? I was thinking about going with the Caledonia tartan, the one Rocky has on his site looks like it would fit the holidays nicely. Either that or a solid green one with a nice red shirt. What do you all think? Any other suggestions? Thanks guys!

    The Scottish National below was my XMas kilt last year. In fact the pic is just before I left to the company Xmas party.



    Or the National Millenium would also work well:

    One of the MacQuarrie tartans(popular one) is very similar.


    The green in this image is very dark. It is green, not black.

    These two tartans are your best bet, in my opinion.

    Surprised no one has mentioned it yet. But, the Lennox District tartan. Mainly red and green with a double white stripe going through the tartan.

    I only got my Irish American tartan kilt immediately before St. Patrick's Day this year, but I think that'd make a great
    holiday tartan if you wore it with red shirt/hose... I'll have to try it before I confirm that but it seems like a good
    combo right now, just thinking about it. I already have the green flashes to go with that kilt so that's a plus.

    Here's the tartan, though:
