    Yeah you won't need luck. Just be prepared for everyone asking you "The Kilt Question."

    Just walk in tall and proud as if nothing is out of the ordinary. Just smile a wee bit more, and keep them guessing.

    Knock their socks off with you great looking attire.

    Just wear it with pride and confidence, and you'll be ok. And like others have said, have fun.

    Enjoy!
    I'm wearing my kilt to work first time today too, and the dozen or so colleagues have been nothing but positive - and the students (college) think it's great. I'll turn it into regular teaching garb (fits right in teaching English literature and culture, with Four Weddings and a Funeral on the reading list...)

    Go for it! You will probably get some questions (including "the" question) and a few compliments. Relax! After all, it is St. Patrick's Day.

    I too am wearing my Irish tartan kilt

    I woke up this morning and decided to just put it on and go. I was going to wear trousers till work got out and then swich over th the kilt. So far all great positive comments. The hottest girl on the floor looked at me and said i looked HOT! So i got that going for me.....
    I work at a DOD lab and figured it would not be appropriate, but my boss is 100% Irish and he said it was fine.
    Feels great...

    I've got my green Wallace Hunting on this morning. I had to take my son to catch a train this morning and got some quizzical looks a couple of "thumbs up" but no comments. Now at work I expect a little razzing. I too, told my boss about wearing the kilt and I got a cool and quiet "OK" with an admonition to make sure sure that "regimental" was not the style of the day.
    Happy St. Padraig's to all!!

    You are not alone today. Today is my 1 year anniversary in wearing kilts to work. Today I'm sporting the my Gordon USA Kilt with brown leathers.

    Damn, I look good :mrgreen: Now the question is will I get pinched even though I'm wearing green
