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.
My personal preference is to wear kilt hose pulled up with solid color flashes.
But with my long thin shins I don't think I would look good in pushed down hose. Too much skin between the tops of shoes/boots and bottom of kilt.
If I'm just around the house I might leave off the flashes, and the sporran. I'd never go out without the sporran however.
Whenever I wear hose pulled up, I wear flashes. I have some tartan ones, but I find I wear the solid colours much more often. It's just a matter of what you prefer.
