Uniqlo is awesome IMO. I get white pants, socks, woollen sweater, etc from there, they also have plenty of other nice stuff. Also, do u have Tarocash where u are? Most of my shirts are from there, they are $80 but very strong fabric, I wash and iron mine constantly and they are in great shape still. And, any good department store, I have used the store brands of jacket/blazer, duffel coat etc without any issues.

Yeah, like Ray said, if Uniqlo is in the States now, they're stuff is great and pretty cheap.

Check out the style inspirations on this site - he basically constructs whole outfits based on different styles (e.g. daygame, nightgame, office, etc.): sexystyleforjoe.com

If you're looking for cheap clothes that still look cool, here are some sites to help get you rolling:
- guylook.com
- asos.com
- trashiness.com

I get most of my clothes second-hand. If you can find some thrift shops where the pickers are good you can save yourself a lot of money, and also build a more unique look.

You can get some relatively cheap clothes at Forever21. Boohoo.com is also good. I mostly just buy jackets and cardigans from these though.

If there's a Buffalo Exchange in your area, I highly recommend them.

I personally roll with 1 outfit for daygaming and one outfit for nightgaming. The most budget clothing you can have is to buy high quality clothes and keep them for a long time!

I have a personal list on a notepad file that I'll put on here,

- Work
:Y Blue Button Down Shirt
:Y Chinos
:Y (Optional) Jacket
:Y Boots

- Workout (Lululemon)
:Y 1 Red Athletic Shirt
:Y 1 Black Athletic Shorts w/ mesh netting
:Y Running Shoes

- Beach
:Y 1 Swim Trunks
:Y 1 T-Shirt
:Y Flip flops

- Class/Street/Daytime (Gustin)
:Y 1 Flannel Button Down
:Y 2 Black T-Shirts
:Y 1 Pair of Jeans
:Y Boots

- Going Out
:Y 1 Button-up Shirt
:Y 1 Pair of Jeans
:Y 1 City Coat
:Y Boots

That's my basic, minimized wardrobe. Also included the names of the places where I get my clothes for some of them.

I wanna second the forever 21 recommendation. It feels a little weird shopping there, but their clothes are great. And I get a ton of attention from girls when I wear their shirts. I actually am going to do a post about fashion really soon, I hope that can help you out.
