What to wear to church (along with story)
On Saturday, before heading to a funeral for my wife's grandfather, we decided to head to one of the local malls. I have been looking for a tie that will match my new Ancient McKay kilt (that is the main reason for this post. I will need some advice on that, but would like to tell a story first.) I was not wearing my kilt (I know, BLASPHEMY!) but I had it in my hand. A young lady happened to be working at a little shop and saw me. She said hello and asked if that, what I was carrying, was a kilt. I responded yes and she seemed puzzled. She asked me why I had the kilt. I stated to her that I was trying to find a tie to match it. She then asked, "Are you going to get married or something?" So I responded with, "No, I just like to wear a kilt occasionally, just for fun." After that I started walking away and she had the most puzzled look on her face. She looked so confused that I was not wearing it for a wedding. I thought it was a funny encounter. I am sure it would have been a lot more interested had I been wearing the kilt (still working up to that one)
That brings me to the reason for this post. I have decided that the first place I would like to wear my new kilt (in public) is at church. I have a picture I will show you of what I want to wear and I would like a quick critique from each of you. But first, let me tell you what I usually wear, since that influenced what I decided to wear with my kilt. The summers here in Utah are typically hot, so I NEVER wear a suit coat. It just gets too hot for me. It is always a white shirt and tie with a nice pair of slacks. That is my typical Sunday attire. With that in mind, here is a picture of what I was thinking of wearing to church:

Let me know what you think. What would you change? I would appreciate any advice you could give.
