Hi people,
I have been davening weekly at a Conservative congregation for a couple of years now. I haven't been inside an Orthodox shul since I was about 8 years old, and I'm curious to go again and see how comfortable it feels now.
It's a Modern Orthodox synagogue, within walking distance (albeit a long walk). My girlfriend's father also davens there sometimes, so I hope to see him, but he and I don't speak on a close basis.
Any practical advice? Dress, for example, should be black and white with coat and tie, or would any long-sleeved dress clothes be all right? My tallis is white with blue and gold stripes--should I just take the shul's in a more somber black and white, if they have some?
