Also, Jeans and a t-shirt is fine, they just have to be the right jeans and the right t-shirt. Fit is by far the most important thing here, most men wear clothing 1-2 sizes too large for them, it ends up looking sloppy.

The /r/malefashionadvice sidebar is your best friend

Work attire? Evening out attire? Weekend attire? All of those are different, and should be obtained from different clothiers.

A good place to start is the male fashion advice subreddit. The one thing that's bad about them is that they tend to be effiminent. Look at their guiding principles using the style pyramid. The best way to differentiate yourself is probably pants. Wearing chinos and a T-shirt that fits isn't a bad style but wearing baggy clothes hides all that physique that you've been working so hard to develop as part of the red pill.

Working out makes fitting into things easier. Fit is the most important part of style. Style should highlight fitness. If you spending money before you have gained your near max muscle mass you will have trouble fitting because the things that you bought will be tight on you.

Another vote for /r/malefashionadvice.

Don't just blindly buy the first thing that they recommend you. Find a look that you like and that you think fits your personality.

While I can appreciate a look like this. It's just not something I would personally wear.

Macy's is fine for general stuff and a spread of things you can try on. If you want specific styles you'll need specific stores of course - but it's a good place to get a feel for things, even if you don't buy there - you can shop around after you get a feel for everything that is out there.

I got an awesome Hilfiger herringbone vest there that I ALWAYS get complements on while I'm wearing it with almost anything that is coordinated. It's been hard to find this stuff in other places.

Consignment shops are a good place to get some nicer things too at an affordable price. Date one of the girls there, and she can even hook you up with the best stuff that comes in before it goes on the rack. Some of my best jeans are from that situation.

Saks off fifth ave has some deals.

1st thing that's gotta be fit is yourself.

2nd is your clothes.

Get that right, nothing much can go wrong.

As for the details: what is the sthick with you? What style do you want? You a suit guy, sort of more casual, what? Age bracket?

Give us something here.

it does not matter what clothes you are wearing, if you feel confident and exude confidence people will pick up on that, and that is what you want, for people to say hey look at that confident man

I can't remember who told me this but his friend used to go to Men's Warehouse and just tell the workers there to pick out good clothes/suits and make him look good as hell. Price wasn't an issue for him of course so he'd be dropping 2.5G on one suit, but he would be the most well dressed guy there was.

You could probably do the same just give them your budget and let them go to work.
