"you look kind of…Scottish"

The title of the post refers to how I was greeted upon my arrival at work on Monday. I can kind of see my colleague’s point; I was wearing a kilt and I do have Scot blood in me…I can live with that description quite happily.

I bought the kilt on ebay for a bargain price after seeing some gorgeous tartan skirts featured in Grazia magazine a few weeks ago. I’m not usually one to buy in to trends but something about this just drew me in and I’m rather delighted with my purchase.
I paired it with a simple black Primark knit and a vintage silver necklace. My Yull Chelsea boots were once again plated firmly on my feet.

I’m not quite sure why my face looks so orange in these photos, I swear I looked a lot more matching in real life! Oh cameras, you and I are destined to never get along.

Speaking along, I’d best move my ass along to work. Wednesday early starts are getting even harder now it’s dark and cold first thing. Winter has so few redeeming factors.

What was your last ebay bargain? Would you wear a kilt?
