If you can trace your lineage to a specific clan, it will probably look fine on you.

Besides the universal setts you might look into the regional or district tartans asscoiated with the area(s) you can call home.

The images on Lochcarron are very good, the trouble is the black background (while consistent) is not one many of us spend much time standing in front of. You might try crop/ copy/ pasting swatches from the Lochcarron pages into a picture of you in a place you like to be.

You may, of course, order swatches, but that can take a while.

I put a couple images of individual threads from the LochCarron modern pallete behind this link:
