Hi everyone, I'm hoping I can get some guidance here. I am a newly practicing attorney (somewhat older than most new attys), and I have been used to working in a non-legal corporate job where I could get a way with dressing pretty casually. You guys would probably gasp, but I live in Texas where business casual can be khakis/polo and cowboy boots. In my late twenties, I prided myself in dressing quite a bit "sharper," but somewhere along the way, I've lost that. Now that I'm practicing law (and in downtown), I feel like I need to start building a more professional wardrobe. I already have some suits, and will be getting more, but I'm looking more for day to day business casual that is traditional/conservative. The firm does not require ties, but I may do it anyway. I'm not really concerned at all with being "stylish" per se, and I really can't afford to be buying $150 shirts. I was hoping to get some ideas on where to start...inexpensive shops, number of trousers/patterns/colors you'd recommend. I hope this question makes sense. Thanks in advance for any tips you may have.
Btw, I have my eye on Swaine Brigg bag...omg. I figure I need to dress a little nicer first.
