Pretty formal from my point of view. Looks nice though. And I think that I disagree with the cream/white hose. With the black shirt, I think that light hose would clash.

Better overall balance, I'd say. I like the black hose with the black shirt, and that red tie has a lot of punch. Lookin' sharp!

A bow tie would really make it look finished. Especially w/ the formality of the outfit. It did make me want to get working on my red fox sporran. O'Neille

Oh, that sporran ... how to put this? The sporran is the sort that would cause an angry God to send some sort of disaster -- like an earthquake -- to try and shake some sense into you. The sporran clashes with everything, including itself. The rest of the look says, "sleek, hip;" the sporran says just the opposite.
Is it dressy? In a business-dressy sense, yes. Is it formal? No. You really do need a black tie to make it formal. Which means a different shirt -- not necessarily white, but certainly not black. The tie you have now is a close enough match to the red in the tartan, so it's okay.
Did you have a formal dinner in mind? Maybe a Burns' Supper in a few months?

Not to change the subject, but if you made a sporran large enough to hold a beer can, would it be a Redd Foxx Sporran? Hmmmmm

You know, I like it. It has a modern look to it that would set you apart from other kilties. Unless they specificly say "black tie", I think it could pass for a formal occasion, at least here in the US. Some will disagree, but just being in a kilt upgrades your mode of dress.
The sporran I think looks OK. I think full mask sporrans are considered formal. Its not my particular style but thats why they make different styles, everyone doesn't have the same taste.
I hope the earthquake Sunday morning didn't disrupt your life too much.

Oh the sporran is a fox. I thought it looked like a poodle. I had to go back and look again.
