Red or burgundy tie with navy suit for networking event.
No-pattern red tie with a navy suit at a law school event would be Republican-coded, I think. That could be good or bad depending on what you're trying to do with your life.

Starter dress shoes
For religious services mostly, and for going to nice places on dates. I'm thinking some smart plain or captoe bluchers would do the trick.

Fall cardigan/sweater/coat recs
Overcoats are easy to style IMO because, if you get a good one, they stand out on their own and look good with everything.
I like this Derek Guy guide. Lean toward something big and with a little bit of drama.

Don't get something short or slim. Camel is classic. A gray herringbone or Prince of Wales can look great and is easy to match with things. Navy tends to look a bit formal, if that's what you want.
The Uniqlo, Muji, and J.Crew options can pretty solid for the price if they're 100% wool. There are a LOT more options on eBay too.

Which Field Jacket should I buy?
I've had a few colorful-speckled Donegal wool pieces and I find i get kinda tired of them tbh. I like the check. If you know you already like the pattern, then consider leaning in.

Camp Collar Long Sleeve Shirt?
I also wanna note that the second photo is an overshirt (or possibly a cardigan?) — notice the big buttons and hip pockets. I've seen plenty of camp collar overshirts, so consider searching for those. I have one from Universal Works I wear all the time.
