These days I am less concerned about what matches and after some time wearing the kilt, I did wear it daily for 5 years, I find I am better equipped to make more interesting choices like below:
Either way you choose to go it is fine there is no wrong way to do this, above all wear what you are comfortable with. Another thought I had was to point you in the direction of the 1 kilt 10 looks thread that Jamie and I did some time ago:

And I generally "coordinate" my hose with my shirt. I was taught to match my socks with my shirt(and my shoes with my belt) when wearing trousers, and it only makes sense to carry it over to kilt-wear. Steve has good fashion sense, and I would advise following it even though I do on occasion button the bottom button of my waistcoat
