A little background. I'm color blind. I work professionally in tax and accounting. We're allowed to wear jeans, and I have been because I put on some weight due to medications I'm on. Well things are finally starting to calm down, I'm dropping the weight and feeling more energetic. My sex drive is finally on the return too. So Saturday I'm getting my beard and hair cut. After that I'd like to go and pick up some jeans and a few shirts, and a pair of comfortable shoes. I'm still losing weight, so I'm not looking to drop too much on the upgrades.

  • Where do you recommend going for jeans? I think I saw someone recommend Levis before, but I wanted to double check.
  • For shirts, I don't know what to get other than polos. Plaid shirts could be cool too.
  • What kind of shoes, and what color?

Any and all advice would be greatly appreciated.

Rock on, gentlemen.

Perhaps if you were to describe the aesthetic you were going for and price range you were looking to spend on items, it would be much easier to answer your question.

What is your budget on jeans? Do you want straight cut, slim cut? Price range?

By shirts to do you mean OCBD? Dress shirt? T-shirt?

Do you want work shoes? "Going out" shoes? Are you a sneakers or leather shoe kind of person?
