Miss Scotland's dressed to kilt
MISS Scotland Nieve Jennings dons appropriate attire to launch the first ever national Tartan Day celebrations at Holyrood.
The week of events across the country will lead up to the anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Arbroath, on April 6, 1320. Tartan Day began in Canada and the US as a rival to St Patrick's Day, and was first held in Scotland by Angus Council in 2004.
This year's inaugural national event was launched in the Capital yesterday.
