Gentlemen (and Ladies) I normally don't start new threads and the title here probably doesn't fit but here goes......

My new Albanach (Matt Newsome) kilt arrived Wednesay; just five days after my new Freelander sporran. My sporran is a Christmas gift but I had to insist that it not be taken away and wrapped.

We are going to a Christmas party (two actually) tomorrow night and I plan to wear - My new box pleated kilt in the Carolina district tartan (see my avatar but the colors are a bit brighter) and my Freelander sporran. The sporran is black and I plan to wear a cream sweater, cream hose, the kilt, a black belt and ....well probably black wingtips (This is a casual affair.) or perhaps even hiking shoes. Hmmmm,, that does not sound too good. I guess i'll go with the wingtips.

I'll post pics in the next few days - the kilt and the sporran are really works of art and I'm excited to be wearing them out. It should be interesting.
