Writer Oscar Wilde once advised, "Beware of any enterprise that requires new clothing." In his more formally attired day, Wilde never had to buy a suit to get a job or marry off a friend. If he had, we would have sent him to Syms, where upgrading your wardrobe is made relatively painless by a crew of seasoned salesmen who know how to measure the sleeve on a jacket just so. The discount superstore has rack upon rack of designer suits from which to choose, including Nautica, Tommy Hilfiger and Hugo Boss. If you're shopping for something you can wear to a wedding or funeral, you'll find a wide variety of styles in black and navy blue. Prices start at $119, so you don't have to drain the savings account to dress the part.
