How could I forget my FAVORITE cold weather kilting under garment? The half union suit! Had an old union suit that I cut off above the knees. Works great and helps layer the top and bottom at the same time 
For city dwellers like me who are lucky enough to have top notch metroparks around, a good kilted hike in the brisk winter weather keeps the heart pumping and the batteries charged

It was so cold today that I put on hose and a long sleeved top with my kilt. 
The air was cold enough to make the car very pretty with sparkling ice crystals on the metalwork and the windows were all opaque and had to be deiced, but not what I'd call really chilly - being from the northern county of Yorkshire my blood seems to run thicker and hotter than the locals down here on the south coast - where we are still waiting for snow.
Although the hose are wool I am still wearing cotton kilts and tops.
I know that I should not tempt fate but really - for the end of December the weather here is unseasonally mild.
Although this is a small island, the weather can be very different just because there is a range of hills to separate the cold air from the continent from the warm air from the sea. We are right on the border with Hampshire, and the north of that county is severely disrupted by snow, but we have not seen any.
