over doing the bling?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I didn't think Jolly Roger shoes or leopard print sporrans were particularly traditional? That's why the outfit works though; it gives a generally traditional look with a bit of untraditional flare.

But he's not wearing Jolly Roger shoes. He's wearing buckled shoes with his own choice of pattern for the buckle. It looks a bit strange, I agree, but traditionally it is as correct as the Duke of Argyll and his salmon buttons. As for the leopard print sporran here's Prince Henry of Battenburg in a silly German cap but wearing a magnificent leopardskin sporran.
