The cheapest way I can think of to start a serious biz wardrobe?
Get 3 basic on-sale suits from Saks off 5th. Medium Grey, Charcoal Grey, Blue (or two blue and one medium grey). $200 each. Have them tailored for about $60 each (find some south american working out of his house in a Spanish area: e.g., Bushwick in NYC). Back in the day I did this and those shits were half canvas not fused! Today it might be the "Italian" or "Black label" stuff.
Get 4 pairs of shoes from Nordstrom's Rack (just shop the racks in the stores). $200 - $300 if you hit good sales. 2 black, 2 brown (one dress and one casual in each color). ONLY leather soles.
Get 6 Saks Off 5th brand dress shirts 3 blue and 3 white. Get one black dress shirt, one grey dress shirt. Then get one blue and one white polo shirt. The total here is $300 if you hit good sales. To save money, get only the blue and the black dress shirts tailored at the same guy who did your suits (never a regular dry cleaners). Always keep one of the tailored blue shirts in your office.
Buy a shoe shine kit.
Buy two shoe blocks.
Buy a suit brush.
Take your time picking out 8 silk ties (or maybe a slight blend). No 100% polyester. Always try to pick them out in person. Never iron those shits. Get them pressed (not dry cleaned) when they are wrinkled.
Get a pack of white pocket squares and then buy several unique pocket squares.
Maybe get a blue wool gold button blazer. Don't pay more than $200 when starting out.
For god's sake brush those suits after wearing and spot clean them. Get them pressed monthly but dry clean ONLY if they get dirty/funky.
Once you get some money in the bank - get your shit tailor made, get custom shoes, get a Rolex and never look back. Wear these old suits when you take your kids to the park , when you go shopping, or to your IRS audit.
Nordstrom. Free shipping, free returns.
6pm.com; they sometimes have really prick slashing discounts on top-name brands.
Truth be told; I look at dappered.com every other day; they cater to men's wear and interest and always post up good/great sales from men's clothing retailers.
I just found a new shoe company. That makes Hand made shoes under $200 and their shoes are elegant, stylish durable, and comfortable on the feet. I order a pair of oxford shoes from them and the quality of the awesome and they use premium high-quality leather. I wear them on regular bases and them well with my own outfit.

reasons?Sorry for not adding examples to this thread but nothing from England should be deemed stylish for Men. Either you take examples from France or Italy. Maybe Bulgaria.

looks like the 90's baggy trousers are making a comeback
Greetings again, Bros.
I have a several pair of expensive shoes (gators, stingray etc...). And, they all have one thing in common: they come with waxed shoe laces. These laces tend to become undone during the course of a day under regular wear.
I found this online. It's called the "Berluti" knot. This knot will stay tied all day, and it is easy to untie. It's the only knot I use when wearing my expensive shoes. It looks good to me as well.
White people have a different style, Bro. I wouldn't rock those either. That is a classic brogue shoe, that they seem to love. I'm not into round toe dress shoes.I have a pair of suede cap toes like the screen shot of this vid, but the ones he shows how to tie that knot
I wouldn't rock them unless you paid me.

I like various oxfords myself. But, I stay away from the rounded toe.
