I'm new to this as well. The best thing I did was join the nearest unit. The mighty Legio XIIII here in Wisconsin.
The wonderful folks here in my unit said pretty much the same thing. First items are Tunica, Balteus and Caligae. Once you have those three items you can relax at events without sticking out like a sore thumb and begin really learning.
And make sure you do your research before you purchase/make any items to make sure it's acceptable to the unit you will be working with. this will save time and money later on. I'm learning there are some really bad items to be had out there.
And I have to give big props to Mat Amt's site as well. He did a great job.
