And as for shoes, untill you can afford to spend a lot, just plain black (my choice) or brown dress shoes would finish off the outfit.

For an even more dressed down look, try a cable knit sweater rather than shirt and tie, and swap out the dress shoes for some low-cut hiking shoes.

Just keep in mind that some acces. are not neeed, such as sgian dhub, kilt pin (I never wear one) and the like. And like Jock says, even flashes can be put on the back burner. Once you have just a few of the acces. here you will be ready for most things other than formal, which can wait as budget requires.

Based on this

Kilt $590
Hose 50
Sporran 60
Flashes 24
Shirt 0 White/color to compliment kilt
Shoes 0 color to match sporran

It looks like it will still cost about $650 for the first outfit.
