    Nothing mega formal about it, you can have stripes and colors but im having so much trouble finding shirts! Im not sure if its because at the end of it the tie sets it off and im just not seeing it or what?
    Where does everyone buy them from cos I see people walking around with some great shirts and ties! I dont want to go mad but up to £25 would be nice, I dont mind buying seperate ties.
    Any help greatly appreciated with online links ;) Hate shopping!

    Debenhams is pretty good too, albeit pricey.

    If it's just some plain shirts with a collar, you could always try Tesco - I bought a few there for just £4 each, and they're pretty good quality too. That's if you're really not worried about labels. Who's going to check it anyway.

    Tesco for most of my work shirts as I usually get dirty when sorting out the cellar so I dont buy anything expensive. For an ok shirt though you cant beat the usual deals in greenwoods like 2 for £20.

    If you can, find your nearest T.M.Lewin. They make fantastic shirts that will last. They're not the cheapest, but everything's half-price until the end of the month.

    Usually some decent stuff in Frasers or Harvey Nic's - Got a couple of nice YSL and Ralph Lauren shirts. Jaeger shirts are usually pretty nice too. Could maybe get some in the sales for your budget?

    Other than that, some of the high street stores mentioned like Next and M&S should see you fine. Someone told me that Zara sell nice stuff for cheap prices if you've got one near you, but I couldn't really tell you.

    Yeah could be a good idea; H&M sell some decent stuff really cheaply. Not usually the smartest of shirts but depends what you're looking for. Gap are a bit more pricey, but sell some less formal gear that might be worth checking out.

    Gap shirts can be a bargain in the sale's but i wouldn't pay full price.

    now i know you said nothing too pricey...

    but

    i wear eterna shirts, they last forever, they are made from swiss cotton so are very breathable and light, the look the bit and are initialed on the pocket which looks nice. they also do any type from double cuff, single cuff, windsor, etc.
    in the long run i think they are worth it :thumb:

    www.eterna.de/Content/ <-worst music on a website ever

    edit: just tried to find a link for somewhere online that sells them and found www.eternadirect.co.uk which are much cheaper than i pay for them.
