    Building a tie wardrode

    What do you consider the key elements to a basic tie wardrobe and then build on from there (same as with suits we always have navy solid, charcoal, pinstripes, maybe a glenplaid, build on with a grey flannel, tan for warmer months, ect)? Currently I have a couple of baby blue (I call it Bush...

    Just won this ebay auction

    I'm always worried that there will be some funky weave to the fabric or that it won't fit right or something will not work. But, for $100 I can't pass it up. I figure I can get the small hole rewoven fairly easily.

    khaki suit

    How early in the spring do you begin to break out khaki/tan suits? Does it make a difference if it is poplin or wool for when it is proper to wear? And what about other spring/summer colors and fabrics? My thoughts are that you could get away with wearing this on warmer days in March. I have...

    While both quite nice suits, I couldn't get away with wearing a black pinstripe or a DB suit frequently to the office, which is how I plan to wear it.

    Unfortunately I need it quickly and I really don't have much time to wait and search for a good bargain. I was thinking Corneliani, but had problems finding what I wanted from them.

    Hickey options

    The next suit I was thinking of adding to my wardrobe is a charcoal chalk or pinstripe to round out the other basics I have aquired (navy and charcoal solids, navy pin, khaki summer suit). I work in a conservative office and need something I can wear quite often that looks classy without being...

    Thoughts on these shoes?

    These seem to be basic, well made black wingtips at a good sale price. Anyone know who makes them? I don't think C&J at this price. Polos
