Poor people have always worn regular suit coats with the kilt. The BBC produced a show called Hamish MacBeth. On that show a piper named TV John wore a tweed blazer with his kilt. I remember seeing the great Kilt maker and historian Bob Martin in a regular suit coat as well. It is your choice. If you like the look or your father wore his kilt that way you should do so.
Today the Jacobite or Ghillie shirt is used by guys who cannot afford a jacket. Here is a link to a wedding on Flickr.
