There's no such thing as being overdressed. When you walk in a room 'overdressed' everyone else is immediately underdressed. That should be your frame.
If blatantly out of place somewhere (eg. in black tie gear at a dive bar) just come up with an excuse. If you handle it right it will never work against you.

better be overdressed than under dressed that's for sure.

You guys should check out some Sean John stuff. I always get compliments on my Sean John dress shirts. They sell at Macy's and Men's Wearhouse.

A lot of guys on here seem to be pro the plain T-shirt style, now this might be regional, but Wal-Mart of all places is selling nice quality Hanes Ts for 4 bucks. They arent the thin shitty undershirt material either, soft, thick, and they've got at least 10 different colors. Super cheap way to throw a few new shirts into your closet for low key everyday use.

Sean John is way played out dude. Not sure about their dressing clothes but I know their urban wear is totally outdated.
I tend to wear plain tee shirts, Raybans, flip flops or moccasins sometimes even Nikes, and nice blue jeans.

I guess Zara is pretty good. I also agree with someone (khaleth, probably) that good jeans are important. Try Diesel jeans.
If you are young, you can find nice clothes on ASOS.com

I've bought a lot of stuff on 6pm.com. Great deals there.
I can get away with buying certain brands online without trying them on because I'm real thin (wear a 30x30) pant and am familiar with how certain brands fit.
They have insane deals on john varvatos clothing, which is my favorite brand. If I were ballin harder with the disposable income, i'd probably wear nothing but john varvatos. I live in LA, and frankly there's almost never a reason here to wear anything other than edgy upscale casual - which is the look that he nails perfectly.
I get compliments on his stuff whenever I wear it, from men and girls old and young.
As far as jeans go, check out AG Adriano Goldschmied if you don't mind dropping 150-200 on a pair of jeans. I think they fit incredibly well and the washes, especially his dark denim are hard to beat.
And a huge +1 to the Levi's 514s. Best slim fit jean under 100 bucks there is, especially the black ones with the elastane they use to make it a super comfy fit. You can dress em down with a v neck and sneaks, or put on boots and a leather jacket and look sharp as hell. Every man should own a couple pairs IMO.
H&M and Zara are hit and miss, but when they hit they're unbeatable. If you're a slimmer guy, their suits will fit perfectly. I was in Zara the other day and they had a dark blue lambskin moto/bomber style jacket for 199 bucks. That would be 1,000 if the label said John Varvatos and the varvatos one probably wouldn't be that much cooler. I didn't buy it because I have something just as similar, but when they nail it at zara they can't really be beaten.
Vince is a great brand too. Luxury mens basics, but very nicely manufactured and wearable.
