I would indeed make very minor adjustments to Sandy's outfit, should I be wearing a day outfit. We are, surely, quite capable of adding our own variations on a theme, without looking too much different from the basic style and without looking like peas in a pod.

What I would say, is that anyone wanting advice on what to wear if going kilted to a funeral should look no further than this picture for guidance. I can assure everyone that this basic style is quite normal at a Highland funeral. And yes, the tie is perfectly acceptable.
