Kilted side effect.

I am not going to comment about not wearing white socks anymore.

Alright. Good plan. Let me do that. I'm gud at rufflin' the feathers, anyway. White look like cheap rented formalwear!

There. Now I'm the trouble starter.

So- onto the post at hand. You, sir, are very correct. I did indeed feel the need to stop dressing like a cave man when I got my first kilt. It was so elegant that wearing a t shirt all the time just didn't seem appropriate any more. From Steve Harris to Sean Connery at the payment to SWK 3 years ago. (I still go kilted Steve Harris from yime to time, though!)

OK I'll bite this time only. I am highly offended when people posts that. It is not a fact and new people may think that is the accepted opinion.

I don't think the white looks like cheap rented formal wear. Most of the pipers I see wear white and I never think they look anything other than sharp. I wear cream colored hose most of the time and they weren't cheap. They will go with most of my kilts. I don't like black because in my mind it looks like someone who forgot to put their pants on. (white knees and black socks) That is just my opinion and I don't make a point of posting that opinion.

And most rented kilts are not the cheap kilts that many people buy and get told they look good. I applaud anyone who wears rentals to be able to wear a kilt.

You have every right to think that white kilt hose look bad but please quit spouting your opinion as a kilt law.

Now that is the last I am going to post about this issue.

Just before my first kilt I reduced my wardrobe to white t-shirts and black jeans so I could just pull something out of the cupboard.

Now I have shirts, kilt hose, kilts ... sometimes I need more time than my wife to decide what to wear ...

I pay much more attention to my entire outfit when I wear a kilt, too. My wife always gets a chuckle when I ask her whether the elements of my kilt outfits go together. However, she also says how nice she thinks I look. The chuckle is easy to take when I know that she's proud to be seen with me. She's never said so, but I think she enjoys the attention I get from other ladies.
