ownership

[BEEDEE]

And then it happens, my new thing becomes popular with the masses and every Tom, Dick and Harry races into the store to buy it. I often hear them talking about it with their friends while they browse the cd bins, and it makes me cringe. Because it's no longer my little secret. I can't claim any sort of ownership anymore. All of the new band wagoners feel like poseurs to me.
When this type of thing happens, I have to take a step back and tell myself that, I was there once, just a few short weeks ago i too was a newbie.
I know it's shallow and closed minded to be so selfish, but as I get older I'm able to recognize when I'm thinking negativly and try to make positive changes and instead be encouraging as possible.

Given that the little kilt and the cult of the tartan really only started with Walter Scott's Celtic Society in 1820 and the Royal visit to Scotland in 1822 it is not unsurprising that fashion will continue to evolve. The current crop of 'fashion' kilts exemplified by casual tartan kilts and the use of alternate fabrics - solid colors and camo, cotton and PV only reinforce the idea the fashion is ever changing.

We are already seeing some cross over from casual trousers with the application of cargo pockets to casual kilts.

So Cloves, I do agree with you, change is inevitable and we only have two choices - embrace it or ignore it. Either way, it's not going to go away.
