Looking at the photos (which as EagleJCS says is possible) I would say avoid at all costs the three colours that dominate the tartan: yellow, orange, and brown.
Almost everywhere else I've read (or watched; e.g., on USA Kilts's monthly Kilts and Culture videos, the typical advice is to pair the hose with a dominant color in the kilt and/or jacket/vest/sweater/whatever.
The guys at USA Kilts are also not fond of recent trends that seem to favor white or cream colored hose for formal (Prince Charlie or doublet) occasions.
I kilt when I can, but I'm virtually always the sole person so attired at any gathering so I'm flying blind except from looking at website pictures.
