I really like the dress she selected, which isn't something I'd think to shop for but once someo... Copycat!

I'd swap the dress for a classic hip-length camel hair coat. Similar to this one, but hip-length b/c I look ridiculous in long coats: http://www.amazon.com/Larry-Levine-Double-Breasted-Camel-Coat/dp/B000HIM6EI I like the dress, but I just don’t know how well it would hold up over time.

She found out about custom tailored suits that's fairly common there. She got her hands on a Jrew catalog, and had just about every tailored to her size in korea. Think she spent more than 2000, but she got just about the whole catalog. Break it down to 10 items, and that's quite a savings :) true story,

A classic wardrobe deserves investment, and so I think $2,000 is reasonable... IF you have the funds for it. I certainly don't suggest credit cards! ;) I guess it depends on your finances and your place at work.

I mean I would raise my eyebrows if my wife were to ask for something like that. :) Isn’t $2000 a bit too much? I mean I would raise my eyebrows if my wife were to ask for something like that. :)

It would be awesome to be able to build *that* wardrobe in under $500, though. Anyone up for the challenge?? :) Love your picks, not too far off from what I would pick if I could fit into the clothes, especially the dress!
