Then, I would say your first priority should be a good day sporran; brown, if you're like most people. Mine is black, as the rest of my stuff is also black, but I would suggest a good brown, day sporran. You don't have to go out and spend a lot of money. If the sporran is simple, it should cost too much for a quality one. Along with this, good hose (not white or cream). These would be on top of the list.

Once you have those, you can move on to other items; however, since you're asking about what is next and not what's way down the line, I would say the sporran and hose. I assume you already have good shoes you'd wear with the hose, so that's why I didn't mention those.
