As a younger guy in my twenties, I'd rather go for a more modern look. Not that I'm mr GQ, but I like to shop at Banana Republic or Zara..some pretty stylish dress clothes. Don't be afraid to spend a little money, especially if you're going to be wearing these clothes a lot, you might as well get a good cut and good quality.
And honestly, don't be afraid of being "metrosexual" a little bit..take some pride in your outfit. Nothing looks worse than bad suits and bad dress clothes, it'll make you look way less professional.

Hey, if you are paying what Banana Republic and Zara now ask for their clothes you should follow my prior advice and at least get some quality for your money.
BR (etc) is BRUTALLY over charging you. You could get a hand tailored shirt, in high quality fabric, in a limited edition, from Montreal or Italy for roughly the same price as the over priced pieces of crap that BR sells that are pattern rip-offs from the better fabrics from the REAL stores from last year, manufactured (shirt and fabric) in the third world, on substandard fabric bases.
It was cool when they would charge like $65 for a shirt. But now that they often ask well over $100 for them it is just brutal.
I have been getting Klaus Boeler and Dagr shirts on sale for ~$100 a peice and they have double fabric/weight cuffs, convertable to french cuffs, solid collars, much nicer buttons, tailored to fit me, in cool custom fabrics. No comparison to mall clothes at all except in price.
