White dress shirt best
+1 on Charles Tyrwhitt. The extra slim fit works very well for me and they have a size guide in the Charles Tyrwhitt thread. The slim fit is not all that slim fitting, so depending on your build, I'd look at the extra slim fit.A man really needs only one or two white dress shirts in a normal sized shirt rotation or 10 or so (I have three in a rotation of around 30 shirts, though I should note that my work dress code is business casual and I generally do not like white dress shirts without a jacket and tie; if my office were business formal, I might go up to 5 or 6). Some people on here wear white shirts everyday and I am sure they can look elegant doing so, but it isn't something one needs to do. In most environments, light blue is a perfectly acceptable substitute and also comes in a variety of patterns to keep things interesting (broadcloth, end on end, herringbone, bengal stripes, etc.).

Good black pants, a great white shirt,
2008-08-07 17:00:44 by good-all-aroundRaincoat, classic black pumps, black skirt, little black dress. Those are some of them. They should be made of the very BEST material you can afford, and be classic in style. I realize that black and white might be "blah" to some, but nothing stands up like a great white shirt with black pants for a "go-to" outfit in an emergency.
First buy the best quality you
2005-08-30 13:25:14 by can_affordMake sure no snags, no loose thread,fabric falls neatly in the right places and fit is proper.
Choose basics that are easy to mix and match:
1. A crisp white shirt-goes w/ everything-jeans, skirt, trousers, under a suit, under a sweater, blazer etc. Very easy to care for.
2. Trousers in neutral colors that mix and match well w/ different tops-black, tan, gray, navy are essentials.
2. A black skirt that looks great on your shape-if slim-try a pencil skirt, if hippy or have thighs-an a slightly a-line works best.
3. A simple 3 qtr length trench coat
4. A black leather pump-a classic will last forever and is great for the office
These things look best

Agree with Robynxxx not to wear matching shoes, or, for that matter, matching anything.
Camel/tan or brown boots, jeans, white shirt or t shirt - no brooch. Just wrap it.
You could wear it to work of course but the effect (for example with brown or camel tailored dress pants) is likely to be too studied....and you will end up looking like a sofa.
If you find yourself at a white person's Oscar
2008-02-24 15:27:36 by -Party tonight, that's a good place to earn a white person's trust. An invitation to one these parties is basically your foot in the door.
Vocabulary is one of the first things to be aware of at an Oscar party. Never say movie, always say film and know which awards use the term Best and which ones use Outstanding Achievement. Saying I hope Atonement wins Best Art Direction will guarantee that you wont be invited next year.
Attire is very important as well. Either dress in an fancy suit / gown or wear something that relates to one of the films nominated for Best Picture

I know they make shirts that appear to be two shirts, but are just one. For example, a dress shirt with a vest that is actually sewn together. Also, I've seen layered looking shirts (short sleeve on top of long) several …an't find any of these things on line. I've tried looking up 2 in 1 shirts, but that comes up with nothing. Anyone know how I would find this? Also, if you know any websites or have recommendations, that's great. Thanks.

I'm trying to sell my preowned clothing on ebay, but I'm not having a lot of success. I mostly list dress shirts for $10 + $5 for shipping. I don't have many sales. Is my list price too high or do people just not like dress shirts in general? All my clothes are in good condition and I only use brand names.

I've been trying to find my favorite type of dress/shirt that is similar to a halter-top but isn't open in the front. It is very classy looking and I love it but whenever I search halter-tops or halter-dresses on eBay or amazon it brings up the type that ties and is usually a v-neck. So I am wondering if the closed, high neck halter has a specific name. Thanks!
Hmm... perhaps they are trapeze dresses??

We're both 16, and we'll be attending an end of year party for my student council. The event is dinner at a fancy restaurant in Boston, then an ice cream social and dance in our gym. The event is from 4:30 to 10 with som …may be any matching color or plaid. Please try to match the formality of your date's outfit. Consult your adviser if unsure.
10 points to best answer. Answer my question, and I'll try to answer one of yours.
"Our adviser stated clearly that the guys are responsible for determining and suggesting an appropriate outfit for their dates."
Rubbish. Sexist or not, the girl _always_ gets to choose. The guy has to match _her_.
Edit: That's one bizarre little obsession with school uniform that you have there.

I own around 60 that are nice that I bought... Around 35 t shirts, 10 flannels, 10 sweaters, and 5 dress shirts. And on top of that I have about 15 crappy shirts that were dirt cheap or free that I use for housework, working out, etc. So 75 total, and im 18, male. Kind of a lot when I think about it.
What about you? Include age and gender!
None. I walk around with my abs showing at all time to intimidate white boys.
