Worth checking out though Leigh!!!  I just think we can find cheaper pants....

They are linen button downs. I believe my husband bought everything from islandimporters.com or something like that.

Are they just regular white buttom downs, or linen button downs? We tried looking into guayabera's (mexican wedding shirts) they're pretty pricey if they are good in quality. You can find them cheap, but I dont know if they're well made. So , still undecided...

picked up the GM shirts today.  We found navy linen Mexx dress shirts at winners for 24.99, couldn't pass it up.  Going to get FI to try one on to make sure the fit is right but I think they will be great and a good deal!!!

 

Off in search on linen pants and suits tomorrow....

So I've gone to a couple of jcpennys and they tola me the stafford essential khaki linen look is out of sale online and theres only some pieces of the suit at stores.. well my mom went today, spoke with someone and then was told to go to the catalog department and order the suit, all 3 pieces (jacket, flat pants & vest) came out to a total of $105.  No cost for shipping & the lady used a 15% off coupon you get on the bottom of receipts. I was about to give up.. if anyone else has an issue, just go to the catalog dept!

My FI loves RW&Co so when looking for a linen suit I just happened to come across one yesterday there and not that horriably priced either.  http://www.rw-co.com/default.aspx?action=collectiondetails&language=en&id=1522&topid=72   I think in the store thought it looked a bit darker.  As well for the GM they will only be wearing the pants and top.  We didn't want them in the jacket as the FI wants to stand out.

This thread is awesome!! Thanks for all the great ideas, my FI can only listen to me bounce ideas about his outfit around for short periods of time
