Just browsing online, and I was reminded again that it IS very possible to dress well while maintaining a budget/ having limited $$ to spend on tailored clothing. Here are three excellent examples-- the most expensive is a suit for $600-- which seems very reasonable considering buying it using a credit card would mean $300 from the two following paychecks would be put towards a fine suit (if NO money at all were on hand to put towards the purchase, that is). I especially like the 40reg oxxford suit; i think it really looks fantastic.

feel free to snatch any of these up, by the way. i picked examples that were all mainstream, popular sizes.

The Isaia one looks wrong to me in that it is all wrinkly and doesn't appear new in the pictures.

aha, my mistake-- it is 'new without tags,' which basically is a term i don't believe in. it is a nice jacket (bamboo, etc.) but it is used.

so, if you'll just direct your attention to the other fine examples....

I love both of the other suits and the purple label is really nice.
