It probably looks like linoleum because of the fluorescent lighting directly overhead, and it's still a bit oily.

Doesn't have to be perfect but try a bit closer. You will need one for each of those shoes

I use an iron, with the tie under a towel. It doesn't take much, so lightly and quickly on a low setting (most irons will have a silk setting labelled) will do it.

Ran across this when suit shopping. I always thought black belt and brown shoes were a no no.

Any belt with a suit is a no no.

I don't know about that. If the pants do not have belt loops then no, you wouldn't wear a belt. However a suit with belt loops and no actual belt looks silly to me.

Have your tailor remove the belt loops. Belts with suits are a serious no-no, stemming from the fact that if you couldn't afford to have your clothes tailor made for you, you had to wear a belt with them.
