From my observation, OCSD is very professional about the way they handle the whole process. I admire the fact you plan to dress appropriately for an appointment; too few people do these days. I don't believe what you wear to the appointment will affect the issuance of your license. Unless of course you go in with a t-shirt that proclaims "Legalize it" and reeking of prohibited stuff.

That said, I know a guy in Idaho who thought it would be funny to have the picture on his ID CCW give himself the appearance of the Unabomber. Can't believe they issued that one; he even scared me.
