Clan tartan ties, unforgivable sin?

[plaid preacher]

I'm grateful for all the advice I have received here, so here it goes. Why would you wear a tartan tie with your kilt! Is 8 yards of tartan not enough for one outfit!!!???!!!

But seriously, I wear a neck tie to compliment and set off an outfit. When you are wearing a navy blue suit do you wear a tie in exactly the same colour, with no stripe or pattern? If you have grey harris tweed jacket and slacks on, do you wear a tie that exactly matches the tweed? No? Well for the same reason, you wear a tie that sets off the outfit. Now to be honest, when I wear my navy suit, I wear my Lamont tartan tie, because it sets it off.

..and I hate to say it, but the picture of Sir Sean is ... just wrong!
