You know what? If we're talking casually I say wear what you like. Yes, match your colours or whatever, make an effort to do something purposeful, but in this place where many want to see kilts worn as garments and not costumes I wouldn't worry too much about always having the 'correct' outfit together. I find it's only prohibitive to my kilt wearing when I get in the mindset that if I'm going to wear it I have to get the whole 'outfit' together. That attitude often takes me to the place where I decided upon one or two clothing combinations from my wardrobe, and then I always try to dress that way.
I'm not the richest guy in the world, so I can't afford a kilt to match all the rest of my clothes, nor can I keep spending cash on clothes to go with my kilt. So whilst I always try to look good, I do vary the style - from a nice collared shirt, to more casual styles, t-shirts and sweaters. I tend to wear only two pairs of my shoes, neither one are my black, dress shoes (but I've never tried to look 'formal' yet). I have one pair of black Adidas Watermoc 2's, and one pair of tan, Polo-sport (Click)
I try to wear brown as often as possible since it's too easy to always wear black. I used to wear a lot of black and then realised I needed to be braver and start adding some colour to my wardrobe. Opting for a brown is a simple way to do that.
