White or colored kilt hose is mainly a question of personal likes and dislikes combined with a band wagon effect derived from fashion and the opinion of others.

Like it is already said, wear your cream kilt hose. I myself have socks in several colors and I’m aware of all the negative connotations but this won’t keep me from wearing my cream hose, whenever I feel like it.

Your ghillie shirt is just one of many options. For casual everyday wear – that’s what kilts are for in my case - I will use polo shirts, turtle neck shirts and regular shirts, all of them solid colored (of course).

Basically I will just replace my trousers by a kilt. As it comes without pockets, I will use a plain day sporran and a belt & buckle, because wide enough belts are otherwise difficult to get. And that’s it.

Keep it simple, that’s my best advice to you.

Happy kilting
