Maybe more than a little old fashioned, but YOU have the right and responsibility to decide whether you want to work there. If your career is more important and your employment is integral in that decision, then which is most important? Dress codes may be as important for your employer as your desire to dress to express yourself. Sometimes this means a bit of personal responsibility and the willingness to live with your decision.

Well I'm not willing to quit my job, if that's what you mean. But wearing a kilt to work is something that I truly do what to do. I'm excited that after 3 years my boss has finally given me the go ahead to prove to him that it can look professional. If he likes what he sees, then he might let me wear it more often.
I understand that I might not be able to "Have my cake and eat it too" but here is a chance for me to do so, and I don't want to mess it up.

I wouldn't think you'd have to make too great a change from what you wear now - based on the picture you posted.
I'd pick a button down shirt that compliments a lesser color of the kilt you plan to wear. Stone or oatmeal hose and dress shoes.
And when in doubt - check Hamish's gallery...
