Speaking of hacking and , ahem, leaving the topic of HRH's as-you-weres, I am pleased to recommend BOOKSTER UK, aka www.tweed-jacket.com for lovely tweed hacking jackets. I have no affiliation with them, other than as a satisfied customer and fellow worrier about assaults on Princess Anne's dignity...

Plus Princess Margaret passed into eternity in 2002, so she obviously couldn't be present to give an award.

I like the outfit although it's certainly not for every man. I think the boots are great and contribute to it looking like clothing vs. costume.
Proudly Duncan [maternal], MacDonald and MacDaniel [paternal].

The boots might be acceptable in some situations, and by some people, but for an Investiture? At Buckingham Palace? Please.

The missing qualifier, of course, is 'to me'.
Obviously, the Princess didn't have a problem with his appearance.
Obviously, Buckingham's Palace nor the Princess' Protocol Officer had an issue with his appearance either.
Plus, he's the one with one OBE more than anyone else here, he is an actual Scotsman, so, it is what it is, and he looks to me, in fact splendid.

But dear cousin, jackboots in front of the Princess Royal. It simply isn't done. (English accent affected and tongue firmly in cheek.)
At least he bothered to be bespoke from the ankles up.

Too much for my tastes. Tartan overkill indeed. But more power to him.

I'm a rebel against rebellion. 
Can one mandate conformity in rebellion anyway? My head hurts...
