I'd certainly include my own versions of things - such as a tight, untucked t-shirt with day sporran as being the least formal. I could also include wearing the kilt with black, hi-top trainers - as I regularly wear this. On the issue of semi-formal I'd go for a black shirt with the top couple of buttons unbuttoned and a contemporary jacket.
With regards to sporrans - I have a range, though, none that are very contemporary. I could still go for it and make a guide like this at some point next week, though?
This brings up something I've been mulling over for a while. I got a nice camel-color cordoroy sport coat for Christmas, and I've been wondering if I could match that up with a kilt (Irish National Economy model from Stillwater) and a nice button-down shirt for hitting the pub. IOW, a non-kilt-cut jacket with a kilt. I'm a little concerned that it might be too long, but color wise it looks pretty decent with a dark shirt. Could be a good outfit for St. Patrick's Day...
I guess I just don't trust myself yet in coming up with kilt-based outfits more complicated than a t-shirt, rugby shirt, or sweatshirt.
