    The highest profile Scottish event in the world

    ...at least that's how they're billing it Dressed to Kilt 2011 - April 5 - New York City.

    Their theme, "country chic" should be interesting. I applaud the charities that they are supporting.

    For the first time ever I will be in attendance at this event. I'm looking forward to it, though I have been told by my host that I should expect to be up well past my bedtime. lol....

    Oh, how cool! We expect a photo with Sir Sean! Seriously, I look forward to your review. The Dressed to Kilt event seems like such a zany mix of Scots/American/Celebrity mashup with fashion that I expect it will be one of those over the top affairs.

    Clarification is needed, though. Will Matt be doing "his little turn" on the catwalk?

    Oh, great, Matt! Will you be staying for the parade? It would be great to meet, either just myself or some of the local rabble.

    Can I place an order you could bring to avoid shipping charges?

    No, I'll be leaving very early the next morning for Washington, DC, to speak at a Tartan Day symposium there.

    I will be participating in the Tartan Day exhibit on Ellis Island April 1-3, though, so come check that out!

    It says, "Attire: Something Scottish or Something Country", sounds like just another Texas Scottish Festival.
