He's asking me for help and I have no idea about men's fashions.
We are headed to his 10 year college reunion in two weeks. He needs stuff for
Dinner with friends (think nicer casual) School's open house (daytime casual) Cocktail party
His current wardrobe is very small. He wears a uniform to work and has never really cared much about what he wears. He has a few loose fit jeans and some cargo shorts, a handful of polos and striped t shirts. He has three pairs of shoes outside of his uniform shoes - athletic shoes, brown flip flops, and some nearly worn out brown leather slip on shoes.
What stores would you recommend? What about jeans? Can he wear a more modern slimmer cut even though he's a little heavier than he would like right now? What style of shoe would carry him through all the casual events?

H would wear: Jeans and button down shirt.
Shorts (quicksilver or the like) and tshirt
Most likely jeans, tshirt and blazer. If it is truly a fancy place, I may get him in a suit but he was resist the tie. We live in SoCal so we are admittedly more casual here

Look at Lands End. They make great classic pieces that last a long time. MH also wears a uniform to work, and I like being able to buy timeless outfits so we don't waste money.
Ditto a pair of Sperrys for shoes. Again classic and timeless.
