i need some major advice and opinions
Permalink Closed


I'm about to take the plunge into my first "nice" clothing purchase.  I usually buy from mass retail chain stores like h&m but i saw this theory suit and i'm considering taking my first plunge into expensive clothes realm. 


what do you think?





The total for the whole set is like around 550. 


Now, the questions are...


Is this a good suit (color and style wise) to own?  (i dont own any suits).

I think if you are looking for classic, conservative, that it's great - you can always punch it up with colorful tanks, shoes, & jewelry. But for a basic suit, I think that's a great color & I love the timelessness of pinstripes.

that's a really good price for a theory suit. usually the pants alone are over $250! i say get it. when it comes to a suit, you never want to go the cheap route. more expensive suits will last you a longer time, and theory has nice tailoring and cuts.

i think it's a good investment. the price is great (for 3 pieces) and each can be worn separately.

I would absolutely buy that suit. You cannot go wrong with a classic suit. It's three pieces and cut very well. 


The only thing I would watch out for is the shine or the sheen that the suit has? Will that work for future seasons?
