    I think it's hard to go wrong with hose in lovat blue, lovat green, bottle green, and dark red for just about any tartan. Okay, maybe not dark red with a red-based kilt in the Ancient color scheme.

    Being overly matchy looks contrived to my eye. Akin to having every bit of your clothing bear a "clan crest". Just overdone...
