Wearing a suit every day should not be uncomfortable. Most men don’t buy suits and shirts that are sized correctly! When you get the correct measurements nothing is too tight or loose. You should also buy a suit with the temperature of where you work most of the time in mind, not the temperature outside.
My rotation of suits consists of six suits, a dark blue blazer, a black blazer, a pair of black slacks, light brown slacks, dark brown slacks, a pair of glossy black shoes and a pair of glossy brown shoes. My shirts are 2-3 all white, 2 light blue, 2 dark blue, and several pastels with a heavy emphasis on shades of pink.
Although they never fail to impress, the younger you are the more stunning French Cuffs and Cufflinks are. At 35 years old, I have been wearing suits consistently for 10 years, since I was 25.
Examples:
Here is an excellent set of Swank Cufflinks for $15, I searched ebay for “cufflinks, under $20

For the record, if I ever under any circumstance catch one of you in a “clip on” tie or plastic cufflinks I will kick you directly in the balls. Twice.
BONUS: I often add bling to my suits with a lapel pin that either: A) makes a statement, like the symbol for The Rebellion from star wars or B) something completely ambiguous, like a simple word. My favorite is a lapel pin just says “START!” People then ask me “Start what?!”, I tailor my answer to fit the situation.

Great post, welcome to the forum.
I can totally agree about french-cuff shirts, those shirts are eye-catching.
Can you break down how you wear a suit everyday?
Just a couple of simple questions:
How old are you?
How many of them do you possess and/or are in your regular rotation?
Isn't it tiring to always wear suits, since they're not so comfortable? (I'm talking especially about the shirts)
Does it takes a lot of money and time to have this lifestyle?
Thanks
