I'm looking to expand my wardrobe to be more overall classy, but in the preppy range. Thus, I'm looking for a source of inexpensive ties, dress shirts, a blazer or two and a pair or two of boots/shoes.
I keep reading about these tie makers on here like Kiton, Brioni, and all these other italian names, but I've never actually seem them in any stores and I doubt they are that cheap. How will Brooks Brothers, RL, Zara, and other stores like that do? Also, whats the deal with fihties.com, are they decent? They seem pretty well priced.
As far as dress shirts go, I need real slim ones. I'm 6'1", 150lbs, 36" chest. I have one from Club Monaco that fits me great, but I hear the quality isn't the best and it also cost almost $100 retail. So where should I go for these?
Blazers and shoes I have no clue about. They will be paired with nice jeans or slacks that I already own, so nothing too fancy. I plan on wearing the blazers to events or parties, class would be going too far.
I'd prefer buying online, but I'm in the DC Metro area so there are stores I can visit. Any suggestions to get me started?
