my feelings are hurt whenever i get compliments that i look nice dressed up
I've personally found that the more mature ladies and gents (especially the gay ones) can help you make choices that will look astounding on you.
My wardrobe looks like the bastard child of Jimmy Buffett and Wal-Mart; except in the winter, when you need to add in the Brawny paper towel lumberjack guy!
Anywhere that sells suits should have staff that can pick out clothes that will look good. Also they should be able to tailor it to the right fit. If they can't go somewhere else. It would be kinda like buying a car from a dealership that didn't know anything about cars and couldn't service them.

It would be kinda like buying a car from a dealership that didn't know anything about cars and couldn't service them. Ever since working in a bike shop myself, I ask for advice from people who work in stores a lot more.Think of it this way: most of us are pretty good at judging other people since we do it all the time. So you can tell if someone working in a store is competent and honest even if you know nothing about the product. If you're having trouble figuring this out, just pay attention to how they interact with their co-workers. But people who work in a specialty store (bike shop, men's clothing store, etc.) do nothing but talk about, rearrange, sell, fix, and take back merchandise. They know what works and what their customers like. (You have to overlook places like Wal-Mart and big box electronics stores where it's impossible to know anything about the products.)The frustrating thing was when customers didn't seem to want to say what they wanted. It's OK to say you want a cheap bike, or a suit that isn't going to look outdated in a year. Stores do stock a lot of expensive exotic stuff, but people who work there know that's not what most people buy.
