Quick Dress Shirts ~$50

I need to go to a store in the US, Midwest, and find a quality dress shirt for a funeral this Tuesday. I also need measured for one. Cost ideally ~$50 for the shirt. Where would you go?

Shortsleeve shirt options besides standard t-shirts, polos, and button-ups?

I've been losing weight and a steady rate recently, and with a new job starting soon I wanted to further update my wardrobe. I've got plenty of longsleeve options, but I wanted to pick up a decent selection of shortsleeve shirts for some variety. I will say that I'm a big fan of lightweight knits, since the different textures make the shirts more visually interesting to me, but I'm struggling to find any on the more affordable side at the moment. Since I'm still losing weight I don't want to drop a huge amount of money; so I'm looking in the 30ish and under price area. Also, since I'm still new to expanding my clothing horizons, I'm fully open to any other ideas or suggestions for options....

Would love some feedback one these coats

I tried on some coats at a second hand shop. I liked both and I’m thinking of buying one of them. Do they fit? Do they look good on me? Which one looks the best?

Difficulty [hard] - How do I combine croc boots with an outfit?

Because of a slowly healing wound on my ingrown toe-nails, I'm supposed to wear open shoes like sandals. Thing is, I live in a country where it rains 24/7, almost every day. My thought was buying crocs, since they have the widest and tallest toe box I know, not comparable even with barefoot shoes. There are a few models without holes, so I can wear them when it rains. I'm just worried, how could I combine these, so they don't look completely hideous in my outfit? I'm going to have to wear them daily. Maybe it can even look stylish? I don't know guys, is that possible? If somebody knows how, then it's yall. Please help! These are the ones I'm considering:...

Slimmer shoes with athletic/straight chinos?

Question - as someone who's been wearing slim fit chinos for a few years now, if I were to switch up to a more athletic fit with a slightly wider cut at the ankle, will it still look ok with slimmer shoes like loafers? Or is it going to start to look goofy?

Fit Check #2 - How do these jeans fit? I was thinking about getting them tapered in more

They're wide, almost a boot cut. I always wear regular or tapered since I'm 5'5", wondering if this wide leg opening looks good or not!

Buyee USD currency conversion

I live in the US and am planning to buy something via Buyee from a Yahoo Japan auction for the first time. I noticed the Yen-to-USD currency conversion on Buyee is notably different than what PayPal's and Google's currency conversion says. Does anyone know why that is?...

90s foppish/Hugh Grant pieces

Looking to add some Notting Hill/Hugh Grant pieces to my wardrobe. What type of pieces should I be looking for? I’m not so fussed about IDing individual items, more the vibe. I’m 6’1, UK. Collar size 15.5, 30 waist 32/33 inseam. Generally a size small or medium....

fit check - thinking these boots look to "formal," maybe thorogood midnight mocs instead?

Please send recs for solid chunkier boots! I think these might look just too dressy for me

Winter Work Shoes

I've been trying to find a wide winter/snow-durable shoe for a casual office. Really just need the durability for the walk to and from the car 😄 I like Vans and I could probably get away with something as casual as their MTEs, but I don't know that they're very wide. https://www.vans.com/en-us/shoes-c00081/sk8-hi-dr-mte-2-shoe-pvn0009qmjm9 ...

Styling wool trousers?

- but not as part of a suit. I tried something I initially thought looked fine (see photo) only to conclude these wool trousers looked horrendous when paired with sneakers. Generally I do not think they should be worn as part of a casual outfit, so if you have evidence to the contrary please share fit photos! Any of your other personal dos and don’ts on the wool trouser front welcome.

Which brand jeans would last longer Between Replay, Armani Exchange and G-Star raw (same material)

I recently bought some new pairs of Levi's but cursed my legs, i should have waited at least a month before buying anything.... Now i need to buy them again. I was looking and found these 3 brands but they are a bit expensive and I don't have any idea about their quality ( basically durability and comfort).... I was looking at the weight of Replay jeans and it's around 11oz which seems low, even my chinos weigh more than that maybe the denim weight is measured differently? Regarding the Levi's, their premium line ain't available and their modern jeans have lots of synthetic fibres... Fit is also an issue, 511s are decent but the rise is low for my body and 501 is tight in the thigh area. Other options are Nautica,Mango, Uniqlo, Zara, Asos,Gap, Mavi and Muji but honestly apart from Uniqlo and Muji, I don't trust the rest of them, i might be wrong tho....

Messenger Bags - What's next for me?

My beloved Foewe puzzle bag has seen better days (it's been almost 3 years with near daily use, love that thing) and I'm looking at replacing it in the upcoming year. I love messenger bags. They feel right for what I wanna accomplish in the day and in the outfits, so I'm interested to know if y'all have any suggestions in this realm. My criteria:...

What texture keyword should I be looking for?

I was really drawn in by this shirt’s fabric texture but this particular one is sold out. I’d like to try to find an alternative but I don’t know what exactly to search for other than a “textured” button down. What would I call this? (Also if you have any recs, I’d love some suggestions!)...

LOOKING FOR OVERSIZED/BOXY T-SHIRT WITHOUT HUGE SLEEVES

Something similar to Uniqlo Oversized Airism (but I don't like their material). I recently got Abercrombie's cropped tees which are nice, but the sleeves are kind of wide and gigantic. So basically wide shoulder, wide body, normal-ish sleeves, length doesn't matter (I'm going to take it in to get cropped)...

Is this rugby shirt a good fit?

I haven't washed it yet, it’s a size M. The big shoulder drop makes me wonder if I should go down to S... Also is this a good outfit? The shirt’s blue is a little odd, gotta get used to it. Thanks!...
