Outer Layer to Pair With Shirt/Tie
I have two winter events coming up where I normally wear a shirt and a tie. However I would wear just that being a budgeting and low-income young adult. Now I want an outer layer to make a complete ensemble but don’t want to spend the money on a suit right now. I’ve looked at sport coats but have a great pair of navy dress pants that I’ve heard is hard to pair sport coats with. So what else would you suggest? Looking at spending under $250.

Eddie Bauer or J.Crew Henley
Looking for a Henley under $50 and both EB and J.Crew have sales. So I can either get the Vintage Wash Cotton Henley from J.Crew, the Ultrasoft, or Field thermal Henley from EB. Looking for something midweight or heavier and don’t know which is which. Also, other recommendations would be great too! Looked at Bronson which looks great for the price but sold out.

Winter Coat Recommendations
Need some advice on winter coats. I want something a little more nice looking than just your regular department store winter coat from North Face/Columbia/etc and I think I want a parka, but they seem to be for the very cold weather? I used to wear just a regular insulated winter coat from North Face in weather from the mid 40s to under 0 F. Would a parka really be bad for temperatures in that wide range?

Jean Fits and Sizing
So I’m buying jeans for the first time in years and want to do it right. I’ve tried on two pairs that fit great, a Levi 514 in a size 32 and a Levi 505 100% cotton in a size 33. I want a bit better denim so I’m looking second hand at brands like Naked & Famous, Unbranded, Nudie, Hiroshi Kato, etc. I did measure the 514s and 505s but not sure I did it right. I think I want 100% denim so I’ll be looking for size 33s. What type of fits should I be looking at? So far it seems Weird Guy for N&F, haven’t delved deep in the others yet. I know I’ve been helped before and thanks to everyone but now that I know what fits and what I want, a new thread would be helpful.

Jean
What are some good brands for jeans ~$75 or less? I am also struggling finding a good style as well. I'm 6'0 164lbs. Slight belly. I havent worn jeans since I was about 275lbs and had to wear relaxed straight in a stretch fabric because of my thighs.
