The principal behind this, as I understand it, is that like materials should match like material. Shoes and belt both made of leather? Then they should match. Socks and pants of fabric? They should match (in other words, your socks should not match your shoes).

I take these guidelines not as arbitrary rules, but rather as a language of what patterns are pleasing to the eye. I would expect the same general principles to apply to the wearing of kilts as they do to the wearing of suit jacket and pants, and from what I have seen and heard, they seem to.
