It's not bad but a solid navy would be nice too. I don't have any matching accessories but Kathy Lare ordered some extra tartan for my fly plaid and flashes. I figured that if I was going to dress up I'd wear the matching or just go with solids for casual and day wear. I also have a nice collection of solid ties. They can be hard to find given the saturation of inexpensive chinese silk patterns. I've done well at charity shops, mostly because I can't find them in retail stores. O'Neille
