Don't mean to Gay up the thread but I need some answers.
Thanks again Beta. I really trust your judgment on these matters based on your discriminating taste. I'm just as opinionated as you are when it comes to certain matters and like yourself I won't compromise on many things. I'm getting back into dress clothes again after a long lay off and I don't want to waste my money on crap only having to buy it again soon after. I'm meeting with alot of influential people and I need to look the part if you know what I mean. I'm going to run a couple questions by you let me know if you would do the same.
I'm thinking about getting some custom suits from Joseph Aboud or mark something or other from a dept. store called Von Maur (sorta like a Nordstroms, Neiman Marcus).
With shirts I'm going with burberry, of course I'll have to have them taken in. Any other suggestions on shirts?
Shoes, I looked into Allen Edmonds and they are nice but I really like Ralph Lauren shoes but the problem is they are twice the price. Then I looked at JM's and they look just as good, have JM's fallen off that much, really? B/C if I can get a 3 pairs of leather soled JM's for the price of one pair of RL's. But if your telling me that they are not worth it I'll move on.
My plan really is to buy a 1 navy suit, maybe 2 grey, and 3 lighter color dinner jackets to mix and match. I'll probably need 2 styles of dress shoes in
brown and one in black.
Do you were black or brown shoes with a navy suit?
