    Nice day in Hawaii

    Went to meet the Wife for lunch & then drop her at the airport for her Australia, Japan & Korea trip. I am sporting the 8 yd, Morrison Ancient Red Kilt that I bought off of TattooBradley ( after some alterations in size- fits nice- thanks Tattoo) my Wyvern sporran, pin stripe vest ( very hot today-no trade winds and 72% humidity), I left my Crail jacket inside. And for our friend Jock- Regimental tie and yes my vest is all buttoned ( unbuttoned does not make a gentleman, anyway from what I have heard in a cetain European country it is left unbottoned so that droping your weapon and raising your hands is quicker)

    Tis good to be The Laird!

    Nice picture. I have to ask however... what's with the droping your weapon part?

    Excellent photo, looking very sharp in that outfit and such a beautiful background. I'd love to visit Hawaii some day, one of my second cousins has an accountancy practice in Honolulu and he is married to a lady who teaches in the University of Hawaii, another friend owns a timeshare week in Hawaii, I really must start grovelling to some of these people to see if I can swing a trip to Hawaii.

    Nice look, but I suggest you find another source for your men's fashion advice.
