I think some yellow flashes would be a good compliment to the kilt. I don't think I could wear yellow hose (personally), but flashes are just that...FLASH!
Thanks for all the suggestions. Green never occurred to me, as it's not represented in the tartan, but that's why I look to y'all for help. I'm too myopic in my thinking.

Thanks for the help so far!
Don't blame yourself. It's hard to break patterns of thinking. In the US, we're taught to match. The same isn't true with the kilt and Highland wear.
If you browse around for pix in the traditional dress thread, you'll find some wonderful examples of how native Scots (and those who take their cue from them) seem to disregard all we've been taught about matching and make it work.
There was a fantastic series of threads with some very interesting commentary a while back.
