2009/1/25-29 [Recreation/Shopping] UID:52457 Activity:nil | 1/23 So I was in Macy's today and noticed all their suits are 40% off.
I was kind of thinking I need a new suit and was wondering which
brand I should buy: Burberry, Hugo Boss, Ralph Lauren or Calvin Klein?
They all are about the same price. This is going to be my only suit,
mostly for weddings and funerals. I will keep my old black wool suit,
but since I put on 10 pounds, it doesn't fit as well as it use to.

2003/9/28-29 [Recreation/Shopping] UID:10355 Activity:nil | 9/27 Best place to buy a suit for interviews? (bang for buck)
\_ Whatever you do, make sure you don't look cheap. A cheap looking
suit is worse than no suit in many cases.
\_ Brooks Brothers. Do a tiny bit of reading up on how suits are
made (types of lining, sewn vs. basted, cloths, etc.), go to the
tall Russian woman upstairs (brown hair, bags under her eyes)
