With that said - One of the most common fashion mistakes I see almost every day is the thinking that just because we put a kilt on - that everything else in our outfits must now match or 'go' with our kilt.
We don't do this with pants.
Going through the pictures, one realizes quickly that Scots and most in the US have a very different eye about what goes with what. Neither is "RIGHT", just different. Wizard's line about pants is dead on. When wearing a sport coat with shirt
and tie, we don't worry about the color of the jacket, shirt and tie clashing with the jeans we've chosen. Though some
(many?) will quibble about jeans with coat and tie. Many brown or rust tweeds go well with an amazingly wide variety of colors, and I've seen some blue/green "seafoam" tweeds that seem to work with virtually anything.
