Help me pick some shirts
Here's a list of my existing pieces but I'm short on clothes for some reason.
Light blue linen ( i love it but not winter appropriate)
Navy blue in corduroy texture ( it's a lint magnet and it takes time to get rid of them on top of that they are mostly winter appropriate)
Black checkered flannel ( winter appropriate and I don't think that they look that great because of big checks)
White shirt ( well it's too white with a slight essence of blue or maybe that's pure white? It's great for some occasions but not for daily wear)
Full sleeve crew neck t shirt ( this is my favourite piece and i love it, it can be worn 247365)
Regarding my bottom i think I've all the essentials which go literally with everything but mentioning those pieces might be helpful?
Faded black jeans ( daily wear)
Non washed navy jeans ( I've 3; first one is tailored that's why it's daily wear and the rest of them aren't that's why i keep them for special occasions)
Khaki chinos
British khaki chinos
Olive chinos
Biege chinos are on the radar and I'll get them sooner or later, I'm confused about whether i should get jeans or chinos...
In short: which pieces would you add? My heart says 4-5
1) blue checkered
2) Burgundy
3) Navy blue
4) Striped
5) Light blue one ( it's either denim or chambray, I'm not sure)
My concern is versatility, I'm not sure whether those pieces are as versatile as solid plain shirts... Also feel free to remove unnecessary pieces

I’d get a light blue OCBD
Image 6?
This one right?
Is there a reason you want to buy six shirts at the same time?
If it were me (and I am slowly upgrading and changing my style) I’d look at a bunch of pictures of people I thought looked cool, figure out what shirts they are wearing and then buy one of those.
I don’t think there is a list of like 10 shirts everyone should have. (Although if there was a blue oxford would probably be on there)
I need at least 2-3.... Honestly most of the shirt outfits that I've seen looked cool are mostly basic solid shirts.... No pattern whatsoever.
You're talking about this blue oxford right?
That picture might be a blue Oxford it’s a little hard to tell. That one has an unusually flat color. Normally they have some roll like this one.
Thx! I'm gonna find something similar and nvm that pic, that shirt has 3% elastane
One more suggestion if you can help me with.... I love burgundy colour but I don't know what piece to add.... It's difficult to find a good quality full sleeve t-shirt.... Shirts are available but I'm not sure which brand to go with. On the other hand, Charles Tyrwhitt has a half sleeve polo which looks good. The fabric isn't pique but it's fine.... Colour also looks good, not too dull nor too bright.
Luckily sizes are also available
