Appropriate Attire and Appearance Questionnaire
"You dont get a second chance at a first impression"
-Anonymous (Presumably, Oscar Wilde...)
Being in the military has limited the necessity for research in civilian attire, but now that I am to commit to REI, it has become evident that I must bear a respectable appearance from the moment I step through the door -- any door.
Because my resources are limited, an all-purpose dressing is paramount. I am writing this topic to request advice on what kind of suit I should consider purchasing. Shirt, shoes, slacks, tie and suit, as well as what material type or brand of company would best suit my needs.
I am looking at a budget range of 1000 USD, however, this may be a poor choice of priority, considering that despite supporting social networking, attire does not actually invest in real estate. Of course, I am just a newcomer, so this is largely speculation, but I am well aware that the money I reserve for REI will deteriorate quickly once I begin to invest.
If I am in fact, mal-prioritizing, it is important that I understand where to begin before I spend a single dollar. I simply bring this issue up as it relates before even stepping into view.
Thank you for your time and consideration.

In this business, a couple of nice button down shirts and some khakis will be just as useful as a suit. Save that money for your first deal.
