Yes the red is really nice, adds a lot to the whole outfit. (The little matchy-matchy devil on one shoulder is whispering in my ear that I should get garter flashes in that exact red.)
That really cool period of sporran development around the late 19th and early 20th centuries had white leather sporrans with red tassels sometimes, here's one, and also a seal sporran with red tassels and liner making the heart cutouts pop out nicely.
These were my inspiration.
