Small-sized button up shirts under $50?
I'm 5'3'' tall, 34'' chest measurement and a 13'' neck measurement. My ideal would be either a blue or grey in a light pattern, or possibly a lavender or maroon shirt. I can be flexible on this, I'm just looking for a little more variety than your basic white/light blue (every time someone puts me in white I look like I need to be in the hospital anyway). Think something that'll look nice over dark wash jeans or with slacks rather than something you'd wear under a suit. Don't care if it technically comes from the boy's department as long as it's not complete trash.

Are there any sunglasses that go over your glasses and don't look completely stupid?
I know everyone just says get prescription sunglasses but I've never seen or had a pair that was actually useable while driving and didn't produce intense headaches. (That's always a thing for me switching frames, even with the same prescription - if the lenses aren't EXACTLY the same it's quite painful.)

If I want something like a t-shirt but less clingy, what sort of garments can I look at?
I really like the look of an open button down shirt over a t-shirt. But I really don't like t-shirts on me because of the way they feel like they highlight my chest. And I'm tried of wearing buttoned everything all the time. Are there any other sorts of garments I could look at that would fill the same role of being a relatively affordable layer, but that aren't knit or don't cling/drape the way t-shirts do?

Is there a cooler weather equivalent of the camp shirt (or maybe a nicer one of plaid flannel)?
I've noticed for most of the summer my favorite outfits are either a camp shirt or a plainer hawaiian shirt, worn over a tank top (usually a tank binder). I'm looking for something similar in feel for a winter outfit. Something that's buttoned but not an oxford shirt or similar. I've enjoyed my flannel shirts before but I think I want to move away from your basic plaid flannel on that front. I just did a big closet cleanout and realized I have a half-a-dozen really boring grey button down shirts and not a huge amount of warmer outer shirts I actually like (and especially ones that don't make me look like I'm barely old enough to drink).

Has anyone ordered clothes off of etsy?
Curious because I'm both a hard to find size and don't like a lot of the traditional options. So I've been looking at small etsy retailers, especially from central and south american regions that tend to have smaller clothes. Do you have any advice on judging quality, avoiding drop shippers, and so forth?

Is it possible to get a suit that looks as nice or formal as wool without being wool?
Asking as someone who is incredibly sensitive to wool. I know I wouldn't be able to wear a wool suit ever, but I'd like to still be able to look nice and I've been told other fabrics either look cheaper or more casual.

Looking for a xsmall or slim fit denim jacket in black or olive green
I'm looking for a denim jacket in black or olive green for my fall and winter wardrobe. Needs to either be a slim fit or come in extra small - I have a 13'' shoulder measurement so most brands for adult men tend to not fit well in the shoulders. If black or olive aren't available I'm open to a dark wash but I would really prefer those.

How do you look good if you're changing body size or shape?
I know fit is important to having your clothes look good. Is there a way to still look good without having to rebuy clothes when your fit changes?

Can I see your accessories & accessory inspirations?
I'm looking for pictures of how to style hats, scarves, jewelry, interesting belts, and so forth. I admit I currently have no clue what I'm doing but I like looking at what other people have done so I can figure out what's viable. Bonus points for warm weather options.

Does anyone know of advice or a good guide to looking trashy?
Think of the Dolly Parton line "it costs a lot of money to look this cheap". But for guys.
I know that's a weird question, but sometimes you want to look good without going to more formal clothing. I'm looking for the male equivalent of going out in a miniskirt and a push-up bra; something to wear that's a little more attention grabbing than jeans and a t-shirt or tank but doesn't look out of place in a casual environment. I can clarify if it's not clear what I'm looking for but I hope that's enough to start the idea!
