The guy version.
I still hate the 3* and 4 button suits. Hart, Schaffner & Marx (or Brooks Brothers -- unlike others here, I've never had a quality problem with them, and I don't think that I look like I'm wearing a sack when I wear one) is still where it's at. In navy or a sober grey, naturally. What kind of grey? Any shade so long as it's dark.
I've started easing into a spread collar and the occasional textured blue shirt, but if I'm seeing a judge, a jury, or a new client, it's a white shirt with button cuffs. I sport the occasional french cuffs when seeing a particular client, who loves my rag mop cufflinks (she gave them to me after I won a big slip and fall case for her father's hotel).
Shoewise, I just picked up another pair of Allen Edmunds "Park Avenue" in black after learning that their recrafters couldn't do anything to the previous pair. ("Sometimes you just have to say goodbye, sir.")
My cravat? A Brooks Brothers tie, bien sur. Apropos of nothing, their stain guard version costs more, and doesn't really seem to effectively guard against my ability to spill marinara sauce.

Not the classic 3 button suits, but the new style ones -- BRC knows what I mean.
