Polo shirts and short-sleeved button-through shirts (safari or plain) do it for me. I still buy plain coloured T-shirts (not keen on logos and messages), which I tend to wear as a contrasting under-shirt but in a colour to compliment the base tartan colour.
As has been said, the important thing is to select a shirt in the colour of one that features in your tartan - the base colour or another significant one, although beige or white will also work well with almost any tartan. Less obvious colours in the tartan are best picked out by wearing flashes to match - assuming you are wearing your hose pulled up! Flashes are not worn with scrunched or folded down hose, of course.
You might find some interesting examples in my photo album (16 pages and 180 images) via the link below.
Take care,
Ham.
