Now I look like I'm in my late 30s due to this condition, and a little bit of thinning at the top.
I want a new work wardrobe, so I'm looking for ideas. I work in a pretty relaxed office environment (dark jeans acceptable) but I still want to look good, and maybe more youthful if that makes sense. I bought a couple of chino pants, but I don't know what to pair them with and such. Ideally, if I could have about 10-12 work outfits I rotate, that would be fantastic. I have a few blazer jackets that are too fancy for our office environment, and I typically wear those to meetings with clients or conferences.
I guess I'm not looking to spend $1200 on shoes, but I'm also open to spending a little more than $120 on them to look good. Same for the rest of the wardrobe.

Shoes budget needs a bit of a bump. Honestly, shoes is one of the areas that you get what you pay for in quality.
You can sometimes find good shoes at discount places, Winners or the Shoeware house, but you need to know what you are looking for.
