I've slowly become obsessed with wanting to dress up and go out with the missus, however, my wardrobe is lacking in the accessories department. I'd like to get a personal tailor and have a custom suit done in the near future, but I think accessories are higher on the list since I don't have much. I've got about 6 ties, 2 of which are eyesores, the others are darker neutral tones which I like. I've also got some nice Calvin Klein dress shoes but I don't have a lot of dress shirts.
Do any of you have preferences as to what brands you'll buy (budget permitting)? For example, some of you may be partial to stuff like Calvin Klein, DKNY or Kenneth Cole, whereas, others may prefer older, classic gentleman brands (of which I know nothing about). Where do you shop for your dress clothes? Do you wear cufflinks? Are you a half-Windsor or full-Windsor man? I figure since we're all into traditional wetshaving, other grooming pursuits like wearing a nice suit fit nicely with our ritual.
EDIT: I know there's a gentleman's essentials thread, I was more interested in where people buy their stuff, what brands, etc. I'm a complete novice at this so any tips would be helpful.
