Corporate style. Is it better to get 1 week or 2 weeks worth of mix & match?

These guides good? Or you have better suggestions? Please suggest which stores/websites to visit.

For me 4 different dress shirts and 2 dress pants (wear twice in rotation per week only wash) enough. 2 different dress shoes (also alternate each day), black and dark brown. Friday casual wear.

Can follow this color guide:

I already have black pants. I'm looking to explore blue as well. Seems not common in Malaysia, but they look great and worn in the west and east asia countries.

Blue is nice. I prefer grey myself. All my dress pants are various shades of grey.

Belt should be a similar colour to your shoes.

i went with my whole wardrobe for uniqlo.

shirts
- 10 x white
- 1 x each colour (green, blue, pink, gray)
- i suggest 2-3 more darker colours for days you plan on having anything for lunch with some curry soup/gravy as spills and drops are more easily covered up.
- i prefer buttoned down collars as it makes it looks smarter without the need to iron the shirts too much

pants
- 2 x black
- 2 x blue
- 2 x khaki (different shade each one)
- 2 x gray
- its great to mix it up and i normally wear my pants, if no spills and what not, make it last 1 pair for 3 days.

socks
-uniqlo on sale
- whatever colour buy 10 which is rm10 each and use that for 6 months before buying a new pairs of 5-10.
-sometiems just wonder in and buy if they have on sale.
- different colour socks looks quirky with whatever youre wearing, especially if its brightly coloured.

belt
- try to go with an interchangeable one between brown and black.

shoes
-just any black comfortable ones will do.

just a side note,
- my office doesnt practice it but if yours do, a comfortable pair pf sneakers and some short sleeve shirts for casual fridays.
- and a knitted sweater with buttons like the link below just in case you're cold. i'm aginst the pull overs because it messes up the outfit and hair
