One of my moms favorite stories about my childhood (I was like 6), is that I wanted to wear a skirt, like my sisters, to a wedding.
She had to explain to me that boys don't wear skirts.
Only for a scottish man to be at the wedding, wearing a kilt. I apparently got very cross with mom for lying to me.
I love this story, and thanks for giving me another reason to appreciate Scottish nonconformity.

Whole ensemble looks great! Gender clothing rules are stupid, rock that shit!

Skirt and socks should be black so the bag can be your accent piece.
I love how the only criticism here is fashion-oriented color theory. This is a special place and you all are great. Thanks for this comment.

This look kills! The purse is everything

Even besides that - it’s fashion lol

I'm actually inclined to disagree, I feel like the outfit would be unbalanced and the white trim and doggo purse competing. The white socks at least offer a bit of balance to the look imo

I love your androgynous look!
I’m not seeing much of a fashion community on here but there’s a streetwear one that might really enjoy this

Had to look hard to even notice the skirt past the mismatched socks.

But wouldn’t you say the dog bag is a statement? Otherwise, why not go with a more conventionally shaped bag? The skirt color (at least in the picture) really takes away from the bag imo.
I am also a fan of symmetry and the three white stripes bug me in a way the white trim does not.

Without putting much though into it my mind immediately labeled this a kilt. A big belt buckle could add nicely, but then again it's complete as is.

I agree! Making the skirt and socks black would make things too busy on the top/top-heavy.
Maybe just change the skirt color to navy or black so it provides contrast with the purse (which is definitely the statement piece)

I love talking fashion and giving outfit ideas! Wish we had communities for that here lol

Bah, some folks just lurk for a bit first. Get a feel for the vibe of a place and proceed accordingly.
And some just jump right in. Neither is wrong or right, just different.

Definitely a skirt, not a kilt. Kilts are flat in front and pleated in the back/sides, usually with a sporran, and pretty much always tartan; the only time I've seen someone wear a solid-colour kilt is in pictures of Americans cosplaying with "tactical kilts".
