    dress like a slob to fit in? what's your advice?

    If your job required conservative business dress and your worst crime is wearing suits that fit, you should be fine, no need to "dumb it down." Just be sure not to get too flashy with your shoes and ties. And no PS. But if your suits are super slim or "fashiony" looking, that could be a problem. If the suit is too...

    Need advice on sport coat/blazer

    I don't really like it. I have no idea of the quality of construction, but VBC is generally good cloth. I would look at linen or cotton (or blend) for a summer SC. If you want wool, a hopsack or fresco. I would look for patch pockets as well.

    New job and need to buy some suits, help please

     This is always good advice, just make sure it is a specialty shop with a good reputation. Even your typical Nordstrom will fit you about as well as you could yourself online, even as a noob. Outlets and most dept stores are not reliable for getting a good fit. You would be better off...

    Best stylish shoe for a walker?

    You are going to need to provide some context with your work environment and what you wear. The key is to get something of quality construction that fits your feet. But if you don't even want to spend $200, then there's probably not much hope. Perhaps you can find a great deal on a used pair...

    grey suit

     At the risk of going off topic, what do you wear if you don't have a full rig? Or do you just not attend, despite the face that many, many others will likely be in suits as well.

    My Tom Ford suit fit opinions?

     You really don't want to mess with the shoulders (I assume you mean width). You need the shoulder and chest to fit without adjustment. The tailor can adjust most everything else.

    Buy Bigger Chest Or Smaller Waist Suit Jacket

    Chest and shoulders are the hardest to change, you really don't want to try to change either. See if there is enough material to let the waist out. If not, get another suit or go MTM.

    What verstile shoe color to go with navy and charcoal suit?

    Dark brown and burgundy are both core staples. Chili is too dandyish with a navy or charcoal suit where I work. Great color for odd jacket.
