It seems like jbiz and I like similar things. I used to hate JCrew so much, even a few years ago it was just another pricy generic prepwear factory, but in the last few years they have really been making some nice distinctive things. Their summer shirt line is perfect

I have a few of J. Crew's madras shirts from this year (including the blue one jbiz posted).

I don't stray too far away from J. Crew and Burberry for casual (and business casual) wear. On occasions, I'll pick up some Ralph Lauren, Lacoste, Banana Republic, or Levi's. Got this really nice Zegna blazer earlier this year but it's just slightly big and I haven't been able to bring it in for alterations yet.

I'll also make the occasional Gilt purchase to try out appealing brands that I don't know too much about. eBay is pretty much my spot for clothes. Will sometimes buy off of styleforum, as well. I have no issues with buying used clothing.

now that i live in NYC i'm trying to move away from buying from those more established national brands and getting more into the boutique stuff:
Rag & Bone http://www.rag-bone.com/
Buckler http://www.andrewbuckler.com/
APC http://usonline.apc.fr
In God We Trust (can't find any of the mens stuff they carry online...)

i like this dude's style blog, he's 19 or 20 but don't let that throw you off http://www.eyefivestyle.com/

not sure how he affords all the clothes he buys as he's a college student but whatever.

i really dig the Rugby Chino jacket that's in the newest blog entry.

i guess this my favorite style blog at the moment http://streetetiquette.com/

haha, the dude in the very first pic there (black dude) works at the J Crew in Soho. I think i've seen him in GQ too.

er, apparently that's the blogger himself i guess?

anyhow, these dudes know how to wear J Crew stuff with enough modern, hip flair to not look jock-y.

i like OC too. i was going to go to their sample sale last thursday but the line was around the block (though I read later that if you paid off the bouncer you could cut in line - crazy). NYC is a blessing and a curse like that.

OC stuff is pretty decent.

My fav affordable line right now is http://www.ssense.com/men/clothing/shades_of_greige

Really cool cuts + minimalism.
