    Looking good Scratchy!

    My only comment would be that if I were wearing that jacket and kilt, my go-to shirts and neckties would automatically add some contrast and pattern, say one of my Tattersall shirts (white with over-check) and one of my neckties (contrasting colours to the shirt and jacket).

    For hose, since there's already so much blue and grey in the outfit I'd likely go with something different, say, claret. (Though I will say that there's a century-old tradition of matching the hose to the tweed of the jacket, mostly abandoned in modern times.)

    I used to wear claret hose all the time, but eventually wore that pair out. I recently got a new pair and I'm again using them as a go-to.
