Got an interview tomorrow.. what to wear

[AdamLX]

Jos A Bank and Mens Warehouse generally carry the same types and style of suit.

Both place always have a promo going where you can get Buy one Get one free or 50% off etc. MW has a buy one get one right now and Jos A Bank has many $550 suits marked down to $220.

If you just can't find a suit that will fit you perfectly then just go to Lombardo's and get one made

True, but I wouldn't worry too much about it. I have never worn a watch. Don't care to, probably never will. I've never had anyone make a comment about me not wearing one. That said, several of the guys I work with are watch guys, and have watches worth more than my car. While nobody has ever made a bad comment about me not wearing one, comments are definitely made about the guys that have the baller ass watches.

Everyone who knows anything pays attention to shoes and watches.

If you want bad ass shoes for cheap, check out the Saks 5th off in Grapevine Mills mall. They usually have some really nice ones for 50-60% off. I have two pairs of Hugo Boss shoes that I have picked up there so far, both around $350 a pair new and I got them for something like $150.

The other thing is a watch. Get a nice one to wear. I'm not a materialistic person at all and love Wal-mart and cheap shit. But other people notice this stuff. And one of the best ways to sell people on anything, yourself included, is to appear to NOT need what you are asking for.

For shoes I hit the Nordstrom sales - they are usually really good on Allen Edmunds and Hugo Boss shoes... close to what you are referring to price-wise, maybe a tad more. I've never felt more comfortable shoes than the Allen Edmunds....

What's wrong with a nice suit and Casio G-Shock iron man? It shows you are health conscious, doesn't it?

I bought a Rolex knock off in Kuala Lumpur for $50. It nicer than just about anything I have seen in the stores (no not Walmart). It is kinetic watch with scratch resistent face and looks good. I don't wear watches but for $50 it was worth it IMO. I will have to post a picture of it.

Agree to disagree. Again. Dude, I'm starting to grow to dislike you immensely.

There are a lot of watch guys in the executive ranks. If you happen to interview with one, it can become an "in".

I'm not saying you should wear a rolex to interview at Verizon or anything. You have to adjust depending on your particular venue. Maybe a Tag.

Are these regular store Nordstrom sales or at an outlet? I don't know who pays $350 for the pairs of shoes we are talking about but it definitely isn't me.

It ain't me either, I assure you... I think about once a quarter Nordstrom has the red tag sale and you can get great deals. I think I paid $179-ish per pair for my shoes and they were regularly like $325+. Also check their website - they do a lot of sales on dress shirts - like Boss and JWN for $50ea or Facconable for $60-70...

I'd rather slam my dick in an oven than step inside a Nordstrom Rack or outlet. You'll come out missing your wallet and have an STD.

[AdamLX]

Neiman's Last Call has some good buys on shoes if you can find something you like. I just bought a pair of $500 Bruno Magli's for $225. I feel like stabbing someone though.

I care. Really. I'm going to go cry in the car.

Don't forget to take some sea salt, cracked pepper, and butter with you...

But what will I do with it, if I have no prime steak?

You're smart, you'll figure it out.
