    I need to go shopping for clothes but have literally no idea where to buy clothes anymore. I haven’t bought anything but socks in probably 10 years now.

    But to answer the question, work shirts provided by work.

      I just get mine from a variety place like the mall/flea market, they’ll have something. Everything I have on now (purple duffelcoat/beret, green plaid shirt, jeans, and bra/panties) were from my last trip.

      Depending on the style you’re looking for, hit up local thrift shops. Most of the clothes I find are either incredibly durable or have never been worn and with the state of men’s fashion today being pretty limited, it’s great to find clothes from bygone eras.

      Search for ‘work wear’ or ‘uniform supply stores’ in your area.

      Those places provide classic styles designed for endurance. Dickies brand chinos last a long time and look exactly like higher priced pants.

        Hmmm, seems to be some confusion. I ONLY have work provided clothes from a company I no longer work for. I stopped shopping because I kept getting so many free clothes, now I need to find my own style I guess?

        Men’s clothes are so bleh…

          If you’re trying to upgrade your look check out Esquire or GQ [Gentleman’s Quarterly].

          Another simple trick is to go to the up-scale stores and window shop. The store people know fashion, and they dress the mannequins in the stuff that’s in style now.
