Good on you. you are on your way to an addiction far healthier then most...
Hose: for the time being, soccer socks work for knee length hose, Various colors available .$5.00 pair
Shoes, well shined shoes will be great with the semi form look. Dont tie the laces up that way unless you have gille Broughes.
Belt: I found some nice leather work belts at Sears which look great. $15.00
The Sporran looks great . keep us postet in DIY forum.

My first pair of "kilt hose" were simply baseball socks. I know what it's like to be on a budget.
yeah, rugby shirts are good for a nice casual look, i have a dark green with 3 dark blue strips across the chest, looks great with the limerick tartan, i think a light green and white striped would look good with the scottish national
