Boys dress shirts and ties

Where's the best place to buy? I usually go to department stores and I HATE buying dress shirts for my boys. They literally wear it once and it's a mess after. We go to a formal event every once in a while like a Bar Mitzvah or Sweet 16. I get them a suit or they wear one that was handed down, buy shoes and then they NEVER wear it again bc they outgrow it.
The shirts at the end of the night are usually tucked out and there's usually a stain on the shirt. LOL!
The cheap shirts fit them bad and I don't want to spend $30 - $50 on something either.

Does any other boy mom have this problem? I feel like girls have it easy bc they can wear a dress again and nice shoes. Boys wear suits once in a while unless it's around Bar/Bat Mitzvah or Sweet 16 time when they're older.

My boys are 8 and 6. My 8 year old is also small for his age.

I feel you!

we've probably had at least 1 fancy event a year since he was born so I've had to buy 4 different outfits since he grows so fast!

Ive found that i like to buy the sets as opposed to everything separately. They may not be the BEST quality as you said, but since they will only wear it once (and maybe baby brother can wear as a hand me down) its just not worth spending a lot of money.

I will usually buy online from JCPenney when they are having their big sales. I think right now they are having 60% off 100 and 50% off 40?

worth checking out their site.
