    And there's always the dye-to-match option.

    A couple of examples of the lady wearing a jacket in the same tartan as the man's kilt.
    First pic taken when I was still living with Ann. She still has the jacket.

    Headwear is optional, unfortunately Leslie's hat was stolen as a souvenir by an inebriated young Scots lad a few hours after this pic was taken, though she now has a new one to replace it.

Go dark - maybe a burgundy spectator shoe. I also like Ali's suggestion of a nude shoe - but only if you raise the hemline a foot or so.

    Have fun,

    Cool! My own personal shopper!

    Seriously, once I get the shoes, then I have to find somewhere to wear it.

    Since it's Joss Stone, it's a wonder she's even wearing shoes.
