Maybe I'm just getting older but when is casual TOO casual

Thanks everyone. As was pointed out by Rex, it is just a personal taste thing for me, and yes the gut has something to do with it, but I appreciate your comments.

My sense is that you guys in North America are a little more experimental than I am.

Cheers, Graham.

Nah, just think of it as more advanced.... Casual = comfortable, wear what you are comfortable in and to the level you are comfortable with.

Graham, you're wearing a kilt. In Oxford.
That's fairly experimental to start with!

As I get older - I'm now 53 - I start to feel that I should "act my age" with regards to clothing, at least when going out - even to the pub! In regards to "casual kilting" I've often done the t-shirt w/boots w/ scrunched-down hose look in the past, but I feel a tad silly with that nowadays. It seems a look more appropriate for the young lads.
So, I'm leaning more towards the polo or buttoned shirt w/ pulled up hose and flashes for going out casually. Hiking or walking is a differnt story, of course....

Perhaps it's not a changing of attitude but rather a matter of vanity. I lean more now to shirts than to t-shirts to disguise or hide my expanding girth .

I'm with you on that...

...and probably as much for this reason as any other
