Where do you shop for clothes?

Maybe this is irrelevant but also try and wear clothes that will double for your night life. I tend to go out straight after work and I started to notice how the people were dressed where i was hanging out. All suits and i had on khakis. So I started sorta dressing for afterwork as well as for work.

Now in my case it just so worked out that the after work crowd dressed better than I did at work, you definately would not like to go in the oppisite direction.

But the point is that as your life and environments change so will your fashion, believe me I tried to fight it as long as I could, Then one day after work I was in a grocery store at about 7pm and caught a glimpse of myself in a mirror..........oh god I was standing in a grocery store with a suit on..........at that moment I was a grownup.

I'm so happy I have the S.

the more often you dress up, the more often you'll want to continue dressing up.

My only recommendation is invest in shoes more comfortable and durable than the Bostonian variety, esp. if you have to be on your feet at work. Ecco makes high quality, comfortable and stylish shoes. They may be double in price, but worth it. Put on a pair at a store and you'll see what I mean. Besides, you can send them to mfr for reconditioning for ~$80 when they are worn.

Even if I was rich beyond my wildest dreams I'd still dress the way I do.

Clothes are something that are way down on my list of priorities, I'll spend it on my toys before I spend it on clothes. You'd see me driving a Morgan Aero 8 plus in cutoff jeans, that I transported on my liveaboard boat from place to place.
