Has anyone here suffered from the same problem and found somewhere they can get correctly fitting T shirts?

I should also mention that I am from the UK, although I'd have no problem with buying clothes from the US if it meant getting a correct fit.

Thanks.

search is your friend

Hi all, I'm looking for a pair of black chelsea boots, preferably with a kind of curve or point in the toe area (sorry, I'm not too informed about boots terminology..) basically a more angular, "sharp?" silhouette.

examples:

example of what I'm not looking for:

Preferably around the $100 mark. Nothing too fancy like Dior or anything, lol.

Thanks!

I want something similar to the Filson 256 but a bit more modern looking I guess?

floral shirts, where are good, moderately priced button ups? Epaulet has a couple that I like, but other companies seem to fit like a tent. BB price range.

So I think I found something: j crew blazer

It is partially lined, but it appears any decent unlined blazer is well beyond my price range and this one seems to be priced fair. It has the more casual look I was seeking. Does anyone have experience with this particular piece?

Would appreciate some recommendations still. The J. Crew one was a little lighter than I thought based on the picture, wanted a real navy, and the fit wasn't quite right for me (either too big or too short sleeves)

Got a couple pairs of really nice, slimmer, flat front wool pants in black and navy. Any idea how I could casual these up a bit? They seem OK, maybe a little fashuny, for dressy occasions, but look off with my casual wardrobe. Figured you guys could fill me in.

Thanks.

Have your tailor chop down your extra, stained, unwanted, or worst-fitting slim-fit trousers...is one cheap option.

Looking for a light "fall"/spring/summer jacket that go with everything, Cords/tight jeans/chinos/shorts etc.

Anyone got any good recommendations? Brand is not that importent, just it fits in that light-just-throw-on and take the bike and off i am category.
