Dress Smart for less
George, at Wal-Mart
For just over a $100.00 you will have your new look including pants, jacket, shoes, shirt and tie.
Sometimes you get the look that's right, for less. And at this point in time, it's a no fuss way of looking pretty good and still leaving your wallet safe for drinks afterwards.
This is added here because some people like my look, and this is the most inexpensive way of getting something that's easily cloned and you don't have to put any thought into it. It's nice, and the clothing is easily maintained - throw it in the wash, throw it in the dryer, throw it in your closet and then just throw it on.
The Basics
For about $25.00 you've got socks and underwear for the work week.
Underwear
Your basic boxer briefs - comfortable, easy to maintain and they come in a pack of 4 for just over $15. Or you can choose trunks for under $12.00 (comes in a set of 3 pair).
Socks
Your basic socks - they breath well, they're comfy and they come in a pack of 5 in basic black for just over $8.00
One pair for each day of the work week! Simple.
George shoes
Basic, black and they wipe easily. They're comfortable to walk in, you can spend hours in them and they have a wear life of about 4 or 5 months before you get tired of them. Pick up a pair for less than $18.00
George belt
Basick black with silver buckle, this is the belt that goes with everything else - ejans, pants, whatever. They're always around and you can pick one up for just over $12.00
George polo
Basic black polo shirt that has a nice relaxed fit and still makes you look casually preppy - add a black leather arm band to dress it up. Comes in white or black - each for about $11.00 I'd suggest grabbing a couple of black, a couple of white and a blue pair.
George flatfront pant
Basic black pant that's pretty stain resistant and looks smooth. they're comfortable even in a hot summer and feel pretty cool. You can pick up a pair for just under $20.00 I'd suggest grabbing 5 pair, that way you have a solid work week's worth.
George jacket
Though this looks a little greyer than black, this is warm enough for minor winter weather, but great for autumn and spring. You can usually find a jacket for around $28.00 - though there is a black leather George coat for about $49.99 that has a cool collar.
One Complete Set of George
If you bought one of each clothing item from this page, your bill would come to $115.00 and you'd look respectable. Each of everything above is also available in youth for high school guys wanting an easy makeover for that first job interview or just to get a new look that's a cut above the jeans and hoodie crowd. Just cuz Much Music shoves the look on us, doesn't mean we have to bite it.
If you want, you can take the above look and throw a dragon printed t-shirt in it and it still looks pretty trendy (accessorize with a leather wrist band and a metal celtic chain and it's a style).
