What is your favorite way to dress in the Contemporary style?

[The Wizard of BC]

If you were to walk into my kilt shop on almost any given day this is very similar to how you would find me dressed.



As I have noted before I do not usually try to match the colors of my outfit to the colors of my kilt. I feel that coordinating my hose and shirt allow the Tartan to stand out, to shine and be the center of my outfit.


If it is raining you will often find that I'll add a hat and jacket.
I find the fedora makes an excellent umbrella, and the leather jacket cuts the chilly wind.





Here I am at a car show exhibiting my Jag. The hat with brim is essential and a flat cap just goes so well with a British Convertible.




When at Highland Games I am often meeting X Marks members so I change my hat to my Balmoral.



On Saturdays I like to get dressed a little nicer. We call it Dressy Saturday.
I've already got this stuff in my closet, I may as well get some use out of it.



Every Sunday I am a Docent at the Royal BC Museum. I simply add the museum vest so people know I'm "Official".

I have say like this....

[MacKenzie]

Contemporary I suppose (it's got pocketses, shhh), but it could certainly pass for casual-traditional. Replace the kilt, kilt belt, sporran, hose & flashes with jeans, belt and crew socks and that's is how I dress everyday for work.



Contemporary I'm sure. Replace the kilt with cargo shorts and that's my other knockabout/casual get-up.

When I kilt up for a non Scottish themed event; just think change from pants to kilt and to kilt hose from socks (maybe). Sometimes I need a sporran, sometimes not.

Ern...I have a red Fiat just like that!

polo shirts and Docs are what I wear the most of

I'll wear a PV kilt with a pocketed or not shirt, plain high wool socks, plain sporran and hiking boots. Much as MacKenzie said (and looks in his first pic, or Steve's black shirt - though I don't have the car accessory) if there were jeans instead of a kilt that would be about it. Flat cap or brimmed or none depending on weather. I'll be dressed similar for the pub this evening and will see if anyone can catch me in a pic. I find the 8yd tank doesn't lend itself very well to being worn in the same manner, even though it can, which is why I got the PV (to not ruin "the good one" according to swmbo. Uh, they're all "good", love). It's about being comfortable rather than seeking a particular style, but then again casually comfortable is a style I surmise.

Ern,
Thanks for including a shot with sandals. I frequently, in warm SoCal, wear sandals with my kilt. I would venture to say most Saturdays.
It works well with a casual kilt, PV, RKilt etc. As an addition, having mentioned warm weather, in contrast to Steve's Fedora I like a Tilley hat for the sunny hot days.

With ….panache of course… !
