Honestly hard to say with flat-lays let alone graphics of clothes. That being said I’ve never in my life needed black oxfords

Some early steps might be bringing in more color variety -- start simple with browns & dark greens. But as was said, particular advice requires posting fits

My main advice is to not buy much/anything and just try to be purposeful with your outfits before spending a lot of money Your tastes will change quickly so don’t stick to stuff that other folks say is “timeless” or “essential”

these are some looks I've been experimenting with i know very very basic but that's why I want to improve

basic doesn't inherently mean 'bad' one thing you can do to improve is to take stock - are there occasions where you don't think you're adequately covered (work, casual, working out, weddings or funerals, etc)? once you know what you need you'll be less likely to waste money on things you won't wear and have an idea of what to look for in terms of inspiration

You seem to have a lot of black/charcoal stuff going on with your wardrobe. Do you have a moodboard/inspo?

Oh that's really really nice I would suggest getting a pair of black boots I guess. For outerwear, maybe a black leather jacket?

It's an edgier form of style. Love the contrasts in silhouettes especially the one with big ass blousons
