How about A Kilt?
Subtle tartans or bold plaids. A perfect partner to add to your list that will fit in so well with other pieces described above.
Shopping for a kilt.
On a recent visit to Windsor, just opposite Windsor Castle (The Queen was not in residence), we found The Edinburgh Woollen Mill Shop
I had already looked online for a kilt, but decided that I really needed to try one on. Plus, there are so many variations in colours from the bold and vivid to the soft and warm.
I chose a below knee kilt that I can wear with a variety of tops and accessories. An added bonus – a reduced price.
Whether worn with flats, Heels, ankle boots or riding boots. Kilts are so stylish

I chose this colour kilt as I was drawn to the muted colours. What could I pair it with that I already had in my closet?.
Lavender, grey/green, black and white are very sophisticated and warm colours that suit my style. So versatile and very appealing on the eye.
The clothes mentioned above that I paired in these photographs I have had in my closet a long time. Classic pieces that don’t date if treated with respect.
