Picking a Wardrobe

I’m one of those people who doesn’t have much of a Fashion sense. I mean, I know that you shouldn’t wear a pink shirt with green pants, but beyond that I’m pretty much a Basket case when it comes to picking my Wardrobe. I have plenty of Short-sleeve and Long-sleeve dress shirts, some have a Button-down collar, and some have a Shirt pocket in them. I also own some more casual shirts with a collar, and a ton of T-shirts with Just about every logo you can think of. I have a couple of good pairs of black Slacks for formal occasions, along with Khakis and jeans for more informal events. Naturally, I have one nice Suit to wear to weddings, funerals, and job interviews, with a Suit coat, tie, a Belt with a nice-looking Buckle, and pants. I also own a Sports coat, but I don’t use it much. Well, I better stop talking and start dressing. I’m late for work!
