Just some quick advice: - Own about a dozen nice, dark undershirts. Instead of solid colors, go for the "heather" style, like the pic below. This style always looks better. Tri-blend is best if you can find it, as the polyester and rayon gives the material a more snug fit, and a softer feel. Get as many different colors as possible, and you can alternate throughout the week, or use as undershirts.
Online Catalog - Wholesale Resources - American Apparel 
- Two or three pairs of Dark Jeans. There are a few different cuts. I'd reccommend the 559s, but if another cut stands out to you, go for it.
- Two or three pairs of nice khakis or cords. Flat front. No cargo. No front pleats.
- Two or three pairs of Levi Action Slacks. I reccommend this brand because they look like suit pants (very fancy) - come in flat front, yet are machine washable. They don't require any extra care or dry cleaning.
- A bunch of dress shirts. Once you know your neck and sleeve size, just pick out whatever stands out in a store -- or you can buy in bulk. <-- (Unfortunately, that deal is only for neck size 18 -- I think you are probably 16.5 or 17. Also, the ties are silk, so that's highly questionable.) If you buy shirts in stores get the athletic fit -- that's important so the shirts aren't baggy around the love handles. Athletic fit dress shits will generally be in a whole separate section. I usually do lighter colored dress shirts to gain some contrast from the darker undershirt and pants.
- Moo Shoes -- 'nuff said there.
