Pants stick out the most to me.
IMO black jeans are some of the most versatile pants you can get.
I'd get a pair of those. I personally love these, but if that's too skinny/too much, I've heard great things about Levi's 511.
Next, like a lot of other people have said, a minimal white sneaker is king. For your price point, look in to Van's Sk8 Hi for a really casual/skater look, Stan Smith's in White/Blue for a more simple look (reading back over this, I realized you were in Italy - Stan Smiths are so fucking popular it's ridiculous. As are the Adidas Gazelles. Not bad options if you want to fit in, but keep in mind you'll be wearing what everyone else is wearing). Honorable mentions are the Converse Chuck Taylor II Highs and Lows. These might be hard to find on amazon.it but make sure you're getting the Converse Chuck Taylor II - they updated the sole and it's one of the most comfortable sneakers you can get. Durable and iconic as well.
You said you're in Italy, so I reckon you're not -too- worried about heavy outerwear.
Honestly, I'd skimp on the watch if I were you - it's an accessory and IMO not nearly as important as the other staples. If you do get a watch, Timex watches are fairly popular among MFA users and pretty cheap on amazon.
Polo 3 isn't actually that large. Nor is 5. Orange is a hard color to pull off though, so I'd personally avoid wearing that.
Lots of Americans dislike polos but I spent this summer in Italy and polos were super popular so just keep doing that I guess.
I will say, all of your shirts are wrinkled. Like straight up all of them. After taking your clothes out of the dryer, hang them up. Maybe buy some hangers if you don't currently own any. Hanging them up cuts the wrinkles down so much.
If the product is available in Italy, these Gildan shirts are great quality for the money. They're not amazing but you get a lot of options. There are several options there for different packages, but I'd stick to toned down options. When most people start caring about how they dress, they don't really know how to incorporate/coordinate color properly. Low-saturation is easy to coordinate. Black/blue/greys/whites/earthtones. For example, there's a deal going on for people in the U.S. right now to mix and match tops. You can see it here. I think these outfits are done really well overall, but as you can see the colors are really muted.
A large part of looking good is in the hair - your hair in the last 2 pictures looks super good. If you need product to do that, I'd use part of the $500 to get that. Keep that shit up.
Also look into cologne - Amazon is a pretty decent place to get them. I personally love Bvlgari Man Extreme and I get it through Amazon. Consider stopping by a Sephora or something and testing out colognes to find one you like - you can typically find it on Amazon for about $60 for 3 Oz.
I'd also stay away from V-necks as much as possible. Might just be me, but I really hate them.
I'd also consider no-show socks. I realize you're in Milan, so if you want to go all in on the Milan look, I'd suggest the following:
Simple, well-fitting shirts.
Black skinny jeans, pinrolled.
White sneakers - Stan Smiths and Superstars are ubiquitous in Milan.
No-show socks.
Your one suit is great. Make sure you have a dress belt that matches the shoes you wear with your suit. A suit without a belt is hard to pull off.
When shopping on amazon - be sure to avoid shit like this. Cheap, chinese made, won't look anything like the product pictures. This sums it up pretty well. Buy stuff from brands you've heard of - you've heard of them for a reason. That being said, only buy shoes from shoe companies and clothes from clothes companies. Tommy Hillfiger and Calvin Klein and the like make decent clothes but terrible, terrible shoes.
I looked through jackets on amazon.it and this was the best I could come up with - not cheap by any means, but it'll be good quality and bombers are super ubiquitous, esp in Milan. Unfortunately, it's still about $90 but jackets get expensive quickly. It would be smart to get a simple sweatshirt or hoodie. This can be layered under the bomber for a cold night. I'd stray away from a zip up hoodie, as your bomber already has the edit zipper***.
I also just remembered that Cheap Monday is super popular in Europe - This is a great option. Low vans are also good shoes to consider.
That's uhhh... all that comes to mind. It's super disorganized and I threw a lot at ya so have fun with that. Super jealous that you get to go to school in Milan. Have tons of fun dude.
I'm known for wearing bright, colorful socks to my office job each day. If you're spending every day dealing with stuffy, judgmental folks who might hamper your career progress, then you can always second-guess your sock choice, but I know plenty of successful folks who see their socks as the last bastion for playfulness in an otherwise prim-and-proper wardrobe.
Lots of the socks from Soxy and Happy Socks can be found on Amazon, since lots of those brands are filling out their selection with a bunch of generics made in china. Specifically look for HSELL and Deer Mum.
I really like these, and also these. They're the same exact product as many of the big sock retailers are selling, but for a fraction of the price.

Mine say 511 on the waist but have the PID for 508s inside. Same deal with yours? Have you found anything comparable?
Mine are 2% elastane, according to the tags, which could be wrong. It would be nice if I could find a product listing that looked anything like them. This is the closest I've come based on the elastane (Cash, Pumped Up, Express) but I haven't ordered any.
Same socks for way less and Prime shipping. I got them and they're super comfortable.

They all have silly names too, like Gravel, and Dark pebble, and Firebrush.
I just use these. There are better options like wool, but they are more expensive.
This guide will probably do a better job of explaining it than I can.

CALVIN KLEIN | 2pk Boxer Briefs | $12.00
Click on "description" to see "modal/spandex". As far as I can tell, spandex = elastine, so the description seems similar to these CK Body Modal Stretch offered at Macy's or Amazon.
Looks like there are comparable prices on Amazon, at least for 511s and there seem to be more sizes available.
Dockers alpha
A "cheap" but supportive sports bra from Marshalls costs $20.
This link for sports bras on Amazon range $9-$30. They appear to be reasonably supportive.
This one looks like a very nice daily wear type and it ranges from $13 to $58.
Even if you find a great bra for something like $10 you still have to remember that it's underwear that "has" to be worn every day. So you either end up having a ton of them (which is expensive) or wearing the same ones frequently (which means replacing it often which is expensive.)
Compare to the price of a pair of underwear. This five pack of men's underwear ranges from $15-$39. That $3-$8.50.
*I'm not responding to any more of you. Appreciate the work I did to provide reasonable price numbers or fuck off. If you think it's not fair to compare to the price of a bra to men's underwear, I repeat: fuck off. If you wear only underwear then fuck off for trying to tell me how to explain the price of bras. :)
I swear I thought I checked thoroughly to make sure all sizes in black were 8.99. Sorry about that. At the time I'm posting this, Dylan Red, Manic Red, and Monument (Grey) are 8.99 in large boxer briefs. This link will show you the lowest price for every color in large.
You can actually buy the socks https://www.amazon.com/Socks-With-Attitude-Suck-Dick/dp/B0052ZC67S
Gooching them is always the best option (place/tape/secure them in the area below or anywhere around your privates). It's the only place you can hope to not get fully groped by security and is a grey-area for a lot of people because it's obviously not okay to just touch someone's privates. If you're super paranoid then get some of these stash boxer briefs.
Currently own this, works like a charm!

They cost much less, I want to say it was a 4 pack for 20. They feel softer to me and don't make my feet sweat as much. I think it is 80 percent merino wool. Darn Toughs always felt tight on the top of my foot and would start to bother me after 12 hours or so. Both brands seem to last just as long. Kirkland Signature Mens Outdoor Trail Socks Merino Wool
Normally myself and other people wear socks like this. I have some nautica pairs that are padded and have a gel strip so they don't slip. Makes it look like you don't have socks on but you do. Hope this helps!
Pants:
[2-3 pairs of Dockers Alpha Khakis (slim/skinny fit) in a variety of colors, be sure to check back there if the color you want is out of stock.] (http://www.amazon.com/Dockers-Alpha-Khaki-Tapered-Pebble/dp/B004VQ9C80/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1377038536&sr=8-1&keywords=dockers+alpha+khaki)
2-3 pairs of Levis 511s (slim/skinny fit) also in a variety of colors; or any pair of pants of your amazon WL, as long as you have jeans cause they were very versatile and go with pretty much anything
Shirts:
Demin shirt from H&M; you can wear it as is or layer it and put a tshirt under it and leave it unbuttoned
Simple Long Sleeved Tshirt any color your prefer
Cotton button up also very good for layering or wearing alone; any color you prefer
Maroon Cotton Tshirt
Cotton Graphic Tshirt
I would also recommend pretty much any shirt from here: http://shop.cottonon.com/shop/men/t-shirts/ (note: sometimes cheap material though). Also their button ups: http://shop.cottonon.com/shop/men/shirts/ (choose darker colors cause of the fall season; great for layering over graphic tshirts if you need something) REMEMBER TO CHANGE THE REGION TO US
Accessories:
Raybans (only if you can afford them at the moment; they are pretty awesome)
Brown Leather Belt; also recommend you get a black one
Watch #1
Watch #2
Shoes:
Vans Slip Ons
Ralph Lauren Sneak (similar to vans; choose a neutral color preferably)
Canvas sneakers
Canvas Slip Ons
Nike Running Shoes; can be worn as a casual sneaker
Dress Shirt:
Van Heusen Dress Shirt
I hope I helped in any way possible :)
Dress me up
Calvin Klein Micro Modal Boxer Briefs are great.
I'm gonna spam my own fashion sense, I hope you like some of what I like ;p
If you want dresses, I would recommend one size fits all dresses off Amazon. Then you don't have to worry about cups that are not filled by breasts. I really love Sakkas brand, which you can find on Amazon. I have this, for example, and the top part is stretchy so it's basically one size fits all: https://www.amazon.com/Sakkas-103141-Adara-Batik-Dress/dp/B00K1ML5JW/ref=sr_1_33?ie=UTF8&qid=1482827864&sr=8-33&keywords=sakkas+dress
Or any cheap $10-$15 dress from a place like Forever 21 is so poorly designed that it is effectively one size fits all.
Here are some cute colorful socks:
https://www.amazon.com/HSELL-Colorful-Rainbow-Argyle-Multicolors/dp/B01DSKGV92/ref=sr_1_33?ie=UTF8&qid=1482827534&sr=8-33&keywords=one+size+fits+all+dress
I know a lot of people here also love those cat thigh high socks, like these:
https://www.amazon.com/Kawaii-Cartoon-Animal-Tattoo-Stockings/dp/B0163422D4/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1482827633&sr=8-1&keywords=cat+thigh+high
I bought this in the past and I think it's kinda androgynous
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00JKF0BNC/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s02?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Cape coats are technically women's fashion but they're so obscure that I think a lot of people don't know how to gender them
https://www.amazon.com/Artka-Womens-Embroidery-Turn-down-Collar/dp/B00F8A0C5U/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1482827761&sr=8-1&keywords=cape+coats
I also really love Mordenmiss jackets (also off Amazon). They're really loose and kinda art smock-y.
I bought this pair of boots a while back and they're really, really nice!
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00KAI4GL6/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I've also bought these and I get tons of compliments on them
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00OMUIWD6/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I also have this Forever 21 dino sweatshirt and I can't walk 5 minutes without getting a compliment on it. Unfortunately it isn't sold in stores anymore, but this might help give more ideas of femme clothing.

I think anything that is a "Women's [traditionally male clothing]" is bound to look fairly androgynous. Like women's button downs, women's sweatshirts and sweatpants, women's leather jackets, etc.
Yes they do. Third from the right.
You should check out MeUndies. They're made out of micro-modal, and are on par with Calvin Klein's at a much better price. I bought these when they were running a promo at 10 pairs for $100. Definitely worth the money, I love them. I've had them for about two months, and have had no problems with smell (althought it's never been a problem for me).
Wool is supposed to be good for underwear, although I haven't tried it out myself. Cotton is bad with smelling. Cotton socks, cotton underwear, bad idea.
At $10 a pair, I highly recommend MeUndies. I don't rep the brand and I'm not affiliated with them, but they're hella comfy. Do wait for a promo code for 10 for $100 though, because that's the good one. And be sure you don't accidentally "subscribe" to their pair/monthly service unless you want to. It's $16 a month for a new design shipped to you once monthly.
TL;DR
MeUndies
Definitely agree with this. I'll just add a list of specific places you could start your search with.
Shirts:
Gap Modern Oxfords - My personal preference
Uniqlo Slim Oxfords - Highly rated on this sub and affordable
Chinos:
Dockers Alpha slim tapered cut - Try New British Khaki, Dark Pebble, and Gravel
Gap Lived in Slim Chinos
Chukkas
Clarks Desert Boots
J Crew Mcallisters
Red Wing Work Chuckkas
calvin klein modal trunks
https://www.amazon.com/Calvin-Klein-Underwear-Modal-Trunks/dp/B000FEC95K
I wear a 32W 36L as well. I bought these jeans and they fit wonderfully. http://www.amazon.com/Levis-Mens-511-Skinny-Jean/dp/B0018OLTAC
Similar to Stance but not as thin
I'm looking for a stylish winter jacket, do you think I should just go with this cheap H&M parka, or shell out the extra cash for this alpha industries parka. I'm also more willing to spend the money on the alpha industries parka since I have a $100 amazon gift card.
We are almost exactly the same size -- I am 5'7" and a shade under 160. 30" inseam is also too long for me, and I prefer absolutely no break.
I really love the Dockers Alpha Khaki in Slim Tapered, and the great thing is that you can get them with a 29" inseam, which is perfect for me.
You'll see they're normally $50 on Amazon. I know that seems like a lot, but consider the fact that you're getting a well-fitting pair of pants that will be fairly durable and meet multiple needs.
You can also set up a price alert on a site like camelcamelcamel.com and wait for your preferred colors and sizes to go on sale. Starting with tan and grey is a great idea, as those colors will go with most anything.
For jeans, I'd start with Levis 511s, again with a 29" inseam. The Rinsed Playa is a popular and versatile color. After that you can go for black or grey.
As for shoes, I would keep an eye out for inexpensive ones in the B/S/T thread. I'm assuming you're on your feet most of the time at your retail gig, and most cheap shoes are not going to be comfortable for that. Better to find something used and higher-quality that won't kill your feet. I think best of all would be to assemble a set of shoes, three or so pairs.
Let me know if you have any other questions!
+1 for ExOfficio boxer briefs. I also like wearing these Hanes boxer briefs.
What kind of accessories are you looking for exactly? Guys, luckily, don't have much in the way of jewelry.
For a watch, you could easily get a Gshock or a Casio Duro within your price range.
Or, if you want more than one accessory, Royal + Kirkland Trail Socks are within your budget.
Or perhaps a scarf? Gloves?
You can actually grab them off Amazon: [Kirkland Signature Men's Outdoor Trail Sock Merino Wool Blend Blue, Green FIT'S MEN'S size 8 to 12, M, 4 Pairs https://www.amazon.com/dp/B074RMFYGT/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_edm-BbJN8J48F](Kirkland Signature Men's Outdoor Trail Sock Merino Wool Blend Blue, Green FIT'S MEN'S size 8 to 12, M, 4 Pairs https://www.amazon.com/dp/B074RMFYGT/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_edm-BbJN8J48F).
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01ELFB7J2/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_1-1SybDZXFHFV
These are the ones I recently picked up. Fit very well and seem to be pretty well made.
Don't get cotton. They won't work at all.
I went through MeUndies, Flint & Tinder, Target brand, everything. And the Calvin Klein Micro Modal Boxer Briefs changed my life. All in the modal material. I was wearing baggy boxer shorts until around 28-29 years old. It was not attractive to me and especially the girls I was seeing. Even though it was comfortable. Even though they're $30 for a pair of underwear, they're snug but not tight, and they don't ride up.
Pretty sure OP was reffering to purchasing Dockers alpha khakis on Amazon
I would happily buy 30x34 jeans. If I could find them.
Here's Levi's 511 and 510s from Amazon.
http://www.amazon.com/Levis-Mens-Super-Skinny-Jean/dp/B001ULDA64
http://www.amazon.com/Levis-Mens-511-Skinny-Jean/dp/B0018OLTAC
I own a pair of 510s and three pair of 511s, both in 30x32. I haven't found them in a 30 waist with anything longer then a 32 leg. Kirkland doesn't make their jeans in a 30x34 size either. Every time I stop by a clothes store I always check, but I've never seen any 30x34s
on amazon, charles river apparel has anoraks that i always see people mention for cheap. like $20-30.
here's some variants
basic but thin
sort of thicker, has a liner
stripes boii
can't personally vouch for them, but you can probably dig up some fit pics around here. looks decent and cheap.
edit: ho 2 format
AIRism underwear is honestly not that great in my experiece, it's OK as long as you can get it super cheap. If you have access to underwear that is micro modal like these or these by ExOfficio, they are much more comfortable. AIRism boxer briefs are mostly polyester which doesn't breathe as well imo.
This one looks pretty similar
They are a lot cheaper and more colors on amazon:
Here
When there are multiple sellers, you can go to a page that allows you to filter Sizes and Colors by "Lowest for Each" to see a list of the cheapest price for every Size/Color combo: https://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/B0018OLTAC/ref=olp_twister_all?ie=UTF8&mv_color_name=all&mv_size_name=all
I have them. Just bought them on amazon:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B01DSKGV92/ref=yo_ii_img?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Ayy I recognize those green/blue lowcut socks. I bought them earlier in the year off amazon. They are pretty good. They have the grips in the heel too.
Dockers Alpha in Butterscotch are pretty close. They look shitty on the model but everyone loves Alphas.
http://www.amazon.com/Dockers-Alpha-Khaki-Slim-Tapered-Flat-Front/dp/B004VQ9APK
Without getting into the raw denim world, you could try:
All of these should have longer inseams to fit your needs too. I'm not sure the belt loops will be any different though.
These in light stonewash.
If you like AE, these are a really good option. I bought two pairs and they've held up with no signs of wear for about 2 years now.
I'd also check out Gap, Uniqlo, Banana Republic, any place that sells Levis (these in Rigid Dragon or Clean Dark are really popular here), etc.
I really like the athletic performance trunk from American Eagle, actually. They're really soft. If I had the money, my ass would be in Calvin Klein every day.
In general, I've heard good things about Aussiebum, 2(x)ist, and ExOfficio.

I personally love the J Crew Summerweight slims that I got at the outlet (they're pretty true to size, and I'm a 32x30 in chinos), as well as Docker's Alpha Slims -- I've got 2 pairs of these. If you want to up the ante a tad, Bonobos might be the way to go, and you kind find some decent ones on sale. Also check Grailed to see if you can cop some unwanted chinos on the cheap side -- I just scored some Apolis Chinos for around $20.

I'm not sure if your a web design company, hosting company or something else.
The lightbox for content doesn't work well, as I scroll the close button goes over the text.
The copy writing doesn't really instill any confidence in the products or services (I think it's IT support that your selling) by referring to yourself as a wolf pack.

I picked up a pair of these
iHeartRaves Men's Black Stash Boxer Briefs - Secret Pocket Underwear (Medium) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B079J6BTFT/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_uMdXDb54RX4CK
Stash boxers like a couple others have said. Taping shit to your balls is a thing of the past. Get these and you'll be golden. I've used them countless of times for events/festivals.
If you are willing to go not as cheap, I think these are probably a better deal at $1.67 a pair for 80% cotton socks. The poly socks dry much faster but at some point stink permanently and then you gotta toss them whereas the cotton socks will last for years.
This happens to expensive denim too. What kind of underwear do you wear? Might I recommend a very stretchy and thin boxer brief? Once I upgraded to these, my jeans have lasted much longer.
http://www.amazon.com/iHeartRaves-Stash-Boxer-Briefs-Large/dp/B00F5JDBE8/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1453684014&sr=8-1&keywords=stash+boxers
I used those last year and they worked great. Comfortable during the day too.
Here are two boxer-brief options. Hanes are no good in comparison due to the stretching.
I'm 6 foot and 165ish pounds, but I'm also 22. Here are some quick staples of my wardrobe that I'd recommend that are safe enough that you won't be made fun of and that you can still find cheaply.
LEC button ups - I sized small but you may be able to get away with mediums since you're a bit bigger than I am. These are cheap as hell on sale so they're great to get a lot of, in case you're worried about wearing the same shirt too often.
Levi's 508 - I have an above average thigh/ass to waist proportion, so these achieve a skinnier look while not strangling my dick. My pair is rigid envy and I use a cuff. Stock photos are bad btw.
Dockers Alpha Khakis - Same deal as the jeans. These might be a little more tight in the thigh/dick region, but I still like mine a lot.
Sperries / Keds - Boat shoes are great for casual wear, although obviously a ton of people are going to be wearing them. A cheap pair of keds (plimsolls) are also good, and fewer people tend to wear them.
[American Optical Aviators] (http://www.pilotshop.nl/contents/media/helmet.jpg) - These bad boys used to be standard issue for pilots and I'm pretty sure that they were worn by astronauts during the apollo missions, so you know they're a good value at only $40.
Belt - I got a custom belt made at Narangasset Leathers that's pretty decent for $45, if I remember correctly. Any belt will do, but don't lay down money on a cheap one if you can get some decent leather. You'll end up throwing it out after a year or two of frequent use, and that's just a waste of money.
Harrington jacket - I really like this style of jacket and I have a wool version of the one pictured here, although mine is a much slimmer fit (I just couldn't find a good photo in under a minute). It's very simple and functional. If you can snag a cheap baracuta on ebay (usually around 100-150), you'll be getting a nice made-in-england jacket that comes with two zippers, meaning you can slightly unzip the bottom one while sitting, which gets rid of that weird poof that you get from being in that position.
I find that all of these go well together and I'm sure MFA agrees too. Keep in mind that these won't guarantee your drowning in pussy, but if you make sure to get clothes like these that are properly fitted, you might just find yourself waist deep.

Busy week ordering a few things:
Levis Trucker I have one already in Bleacher light but this is for fall
Slim cotton-cashmere grey sweater from J.Crew
Donegal Shawl sweater from J.Crew
Gap rich ginger 1969 pants
Dockers Alpha in Dark Pebble
Dockers modern in Grey and New British Khaki
I get the J.Crew stuff in tonight. :)
Calvin Klein Micromodal Boxer Briefs
You gotta get these, man. Made by IHeartRaves/Emazing. I got them for EDCO last year and they've been a game changer since. In go my medication and gloves, and yes, my Clif bars and Blow Pops and the only shit I worry about is then rattling together because there's so much space.

I was able to get the Docker's Alpha at Amazon for 46.99 and cheaper shipping, but they're low on stock.
speakeasy briefs - They work nice for sneaking flasks and other things into the fest. But if you're someone who wears rather snug shorts, it becomes a bit uncomfortable...
Look for me on Friday wearing this ^ButGalaxyVersionFromPacsun

Opinions on these Levi's 511s in "Lake Merrit" wash? Looking to get some cheap light wash jeans for this spring/summer. Any other suggestions are also welcome. (preferably less than $100)
Try the docker's alpha khaki, they're pretty cheap and come in a pretty wide array of colors and sizes on amazon.

Also on the black, the docker's logo is also black, unlike in the picture. The other colors it does appear to be orange though.
I bought them off Amazon a couple months ago. Don't seem to be sold out.

Anything like this under $50? I like the fit on this, it could be just a tad tiny bit slimmer though.
I second merino wool socks. Took care of my foot odor issues. Costco is probably the cheapest, but if it's too thick, you can probably find more expensive versions on Amazon.

38x30 Levi 511 Slim fit Jeans
Bought from Levis' website. I never wore them because im too small for them! They've also never been worn by anybody else. Im selling them for $31 shipped. They go for ~42 online. Here are [Three pics of them.] (http://imgur.com/a/9qc19#IJIUKjH) Below are links to the same pants online.

yet again I'm advertising this stupid anorak. I have it, its my favorite piece
Mischief Managed!
So I decided to order my school supplies from a "reputable" magical supply store. I can not believe what happened. So you order by answering riddles and I thought that would ensure that everyone's orders are correct, I guess not....
Riddle the First-Wine or Wine Goblet
Either way, I wonder if this is even considered to be appropriate [drink wear] (http://www.amazon.com/dp/B004HZR94O/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_nS_ttl?_encoding=UTF8&colid=25MSIGOHKX8AU&coliid=I1GX53XQYP0JML&psc=1) in the Great Hall of the RAOA school of magic, merriment and Mischief.
Riddle the Second- Broom
I don't know what they were thinking, I asked for a Firebolt, I will never be able to fly with these. I thought maybe they were just tiny for shipping purposes, but I've tried to use Engorgio to make them bigger, but nothing happens.
Riddle the Third- Hat
I swear I ordered a standard witch's hat. I am not sure how they heard wicker hat.
Riddle the Fourth- Book
They told me that this is one of the most important books of knowledge of our times and I wouldn't be able to pass my muggle studies with out it
Riddle the Fifth- Trunk
I don't even know what to say about this. How am I suppose to get all my supplies/clothes to school in these? I mean sure if I was a guy I am sure they would be pretty comfortable. Note to self, next time use the word Luggage Trunk.
Bonus Riddle- Cape
And last but not least, I just wanted a simple black cape. It's black alright, but unless I am going to be giving haircuts in my common room, I have no idea what to do with this.
That is the last time I order anything from Mundungus Fletcher's Magic Emporium.
I was looking at some of those as well and decided to order a pair, I didn’t get that exact pair but the ones I got are fairly decent. The hidden pocket is an actual zipper and is decently big and stretchy as well as comfortable. The pocket is big enough to fit my IPhone X although I’m sure that’s because it’s just stretchy. Speakeasy Briefs, Men's Stash Underwear with a Secret Front Pocket, Medium, Black https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00M28VJFI?ref=yo_pop_ma_swf
no idea what that one in particular is, but something like this could give a similar vibe, albeit a less dramatic hood/shawl collar thing
How do these wool socks from Costco/Amazon by Kirkland perform in the summer with boots. Do they keep the feet dry?
Chinos are trousers like these:
https://www.amazon.com/Dockers-Mens-Alpha-Khaki-Flat-Front/dp/B004VQ9APK

iHeartRaves Hide Your Stash Boxer Briefs (Large, Black) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00F5JDBE8/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apap_2BXUrZ7uDxj31
iHeartRaves Black Hide Your Stash Boxer Briefs (Medium) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B079J6BTFT/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_akELBb2BJXV8G
These work really well. I don’t glove but I have friends who do and they use these to sneak things in. They also work great for sneaking other things in!
I feel like they're a little bluer than that, but it's hard to say what the lighting is doing to them.
I was thinking these in Muse color
Hard to say though, I think those just look closest to what I've found looking around.
I have worn those Hanes boxer briefs for a few years. If you rotate between a few pair they should last you well over a year. I actually purchased 10 pair from Amazon a couple months back and I love them. I have tried a few other pairs other the years like Under Armor, Puma, Adidas ect but none feel as comfortable and fit my body as well.
A note on riding up ..I only have that issue with old underwear or if I try to throw jeans on after wearing them all day and sleeping in them. I imagine if I wore skinny jeans I would have a bigger issue with that.
Are these the modal ones you recommend? https://www.amazon.com/Calvin-Klein-Underwear-Modal-Briefs/dp/B000FE98IG/ref=pd_sbs_193_3?_encoding=UTF8&refRID=6JJ7TCA3VDKC1C0KTCZ0
Haven't gifted before so not entering the contest but I'll give any excuse to show off this Three Wolf Moon Shirt
The reviews are really the best part
Got a pair of these last year for LIC & they saved my life!
Just use Amazon Prime if you've got it. If not the old duct tape & the thigh method?

How long does it take for bulking gainz to require replacing clothing?
Not sure if I should take advantage of this deal and get another pair of 511 or if I should start getting 508s etc. Also the recently arrived penfield gibson fits shoulders in S but body would fit perfectly in the XS, wait that out?
Fwiw I'm 5'8.5" 150lbs, this is my 5th week lifting, and I'm squatting 205 right now. I don't plan on getting huge legs, just want something somewhat proportional; I lift more for the mood/physical benefits and confidence than pride in stats.

Probably too late for today but does anyone know what these Chukka boots might be or can anyone recommend similar Chukkas in the same style (3 eyelets, flat sole, light brown color)? I asked over in /r/MFA and was directed over here. I saw them on Amazon's page for Dockers Alphas. Thanks!

I picked it up from the lovely cesspool that is Walmart about a year ago.
I think this is going to be replacing the pizza onesie though.
It's not huge issue but it still looks weird. Have you ever owned CK modals?

The only link you provided that I approve of are the Sperry Top-Siders. I found the Ice to be very versatile and the solid black have recieved compliments as they aren't very common. Both versatile. Good with shorts and could even be formal enough for a summer wedding. Oatmeal, Sahara/Brown Buc Brown for a basic, well, brown.
For a watch I'll make a few personal suggestions. Of course, the Timex Easy Reader, Brown & Black. Bonus: Black face. This Seiko for a silver watch and I like this black Citizen Eco Drive as well.
Get some basic chino's in a good slim fit like the Dockers Alpha Khaki and some basic flat front shorts from Patagonia.
American Apparel for some staples. Cut down on your graphic tee's and get some plain stuff! I really like the Tri-Blend 50/25/25 Track Shirt for tee's, so comfortable. The black is actually a really dark grey, because of the nature of 'the blend', I really like it and it matches these dark grey twill plimsolls I have perfectly. They have great thin sweaters and cardigans too, browse what's available on Amazon, go on their website to see better images and what else they offer.
I don't mean to totally disregard your choices, I'm just showing you some items that I like, some good basics, and that's all I can muster before I head to bed.
Also, are you sure you're really a 32 inch waist at 6ft 150lbs?
I live in MN as well. For something different than you've been looking at, give this a look. It's what I want to buy next.
As others have said, you'll want real winter boots, gloves, scarf, and hat. Stock up on wool sweaters, chunky sweaters, thick button downs, and wool socks.
The coat is the centerpiece, but if you don't have the right accessories, you're still going to feel cold.

Here you go
No show socks, fam. But you have to get the right ones. These are phenomenal. I spent like 26 bucks and got 12 pairs because I hate how socks look if I'm not wearing boots or a suit. Totally worth it any day, and they actually dont slide off my feet.
Security never even checked our pockets or shoes once. I brought in mushrooms, Molly, acid, in my rave boxers. Flask would also fit, and you won't have any problems as long as it doesn't set off the metal detector.
Always more worried than I need to be. It went super smoothly for our group.

I found these to be pretty good
There are cocktails and I think I remember there being marg/daquiri-type drinks available but I'm not 100% sure on it. I usually stick to the red bull buckets ($12, I think). A beer is like $6-7 for a bud light/corona, $9-10 for fancier stuff. Mixed drinks run $8-10ish.
If you want to save some money and have a bit more flexibility with drinks, invest in some collapsible flasks and stash briefs. You'll be a hero to everyone in your group.
No shows ftw. These from Amazon work really well.
What do you guys think of these socks? https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01DSKGV92
I bought these on a whim and now I'm concerned whether they're too loud/tacky? I'd like to wear them with nice jeans/chinos and brown boots to work and on dates.
The exact same belt on Amazon is $44.99 with free shipping. Thats not bad compared to $59

It may be a bit unorthodox, but my "suit" is comprised of Dockers D1s (matching the color of your coat, of course) and any well fitting suit coat. You can get the pants for ~$45, coat for ~$150-200. You could shell out more to get that coat well tailored. It looks much better than what any of my friends are wearing.
Yes, I know that the pants are technically khakis and not suit pants. They're all dress pants. No one will notice unless they grab your pants and feel them. You will look fashionable for a fraction of the price. Trust me on this. I've gotten a lot of compliments on my "suit." It is MUCH harder (and expensive) to find slim fit pants in a matching suit set. Just make sure that the inseam is the right length and you're fine.
Edit: These are Dockers D1's.. I'd go with the gray (fog) pair and find a matching coat. Get it tailored to look slim cut. You seem to have a very similar build to me so it should look good. Gray also might not look best with your shoes, so you could spend the ~$250 you have left on a new pair of shoes.
