Days to wear a kilt...
Dave already mentioned the previous thread for days appropriate to wear a kilt on, but some of the "biggies" are:
January 25: Robert Burns's birthday
April 6: Tartan Day (in honour of the Declaration of Arbroath, 1320)
April 16: The Battle of Culloden, 1746
June 9: St. Columba's Day
June 24: The Battle of Bannockburn, 1314
November 30: St. Andrew's Day
December 31/January 1: Hogmanay/New Year's Day
Cheers, 
Todd

I have also added MY birthday to the list.
Also, if you do have a company dess code (we do) and it simply says "business casual" and the goes to describe things NOT considered, cargo pants, extreme faded or torn jeans, tube tops...you get the idea. Kilts definately fit into the 'casual' catagory. However, I did approch the department director first before the first time and 'ask' their views. This was a few days before Tartan Day AND I had set up a display a week before on Scotland, America and Celebration of Tartan Day. This worked great.
Good Luck,

Yet, if you wear an Argyle jacket and a tie, it's as formal as a suit. Or if you wear a Prince Charlie and a bow tie, it's the equivalent of a tuxedo (well okay, it's far, far cooler than a tuxedo).

You could casually mention that today is your very merry unbirthday...
Just wear your top hat tilted at a jauntly angle.

Now I'm going to have a picture of Dread in a top hat in my head and not be able to get rid of it!;)
