Newbie needs advice - kilts and cruising

[BuckeyeMark]

Since you're just entering the kilting world, I would recommend starting with the basics: kilt, hose, sporran. Add to that as you are able. If you don't have all you want by the time of the cruise, just wear a shirt and tie, and forego the jacket. You won't be the only one without a jacket. My experience over some 14 cruises is that you'll see a small number in tuxes or perhaps military uniform, a larger number in a suit or sports coat, and an even larger number without a coat - some with just a tie, but more likely a polo shirt or aloha shirt. And, there will be a few in t-shirts. Given your itinerary, you'll probably see a another kilt or two - great way to talk about kilts! No one judges what you feel comfortable wearing those special evenings.

I know what you mean - we've cruised a lot and we see less and less of the real "dressed to the nines" look. Fewer tuxes and even fewer suits.

That said, I'm not doing this halfway. I'm going all in - PC, flashes, the works! I'm even hoping to convince some of the other guys in our group to go for it as well! LET'S DO THIS! #FormalNightIsKiltNight
