    If I wear the hose pulled up, I almost always wear flashes. And I basically agree with Matt here. While I have and do occasionally wear some tartan flashes (always matched to the tartan), I prefer solid color flashes in a coordinating color.

    Moose, flashes by themselves won't make you look too dressed up. If anyone notices anything it will be the kilt. The kilt, worn with hose, solid color flashes, a plain leather sporran, and maybe a knit golf shirt will give you a nice casual kilted look.

    I always wear tartan flashes to match the kilt I am wearing as I think they look much smarter that plain ones (a matter of choise)

    I don't often wear flashes. I wear a simple elastic garter to keep the hose up mostly. I save the flashes for dressing up.

    In general, I wear plain flashes anytime I wear actual hoses. If I don't wear the flashes, I feel it looks a bit too 'Catholic school-girl'. Personal taste, though. So for me, it's hose + flashes, or more normal socks scrunched all the way down.
