Yup, that's what I do. After going there for a while, she now suggests different styles I might want to try. Keeps my look modern.
Asking the sales people is good advice. Also, why not ring up your female friend and say that you'd like to ask her a favour - to come shopping with you and help you pick out a new wardrobe. Women love to help men shop for clothes, plus they will spot things that men generally don't (like accessories that would go with what you just bought). Make sure you buy her lunch while you're out. This way you get to kill 2 birds with 1 stone - you spend time with your friend, and you get new clothes. I always take a female friend shopping with me - in fact, I have to keep it quiet because if one friend finds out I took another friend, they can get quite possessive ("so, you trust Cindy's taste over mine now?")...

FOR GOD'S SAKE! DO NOT TAKE YOUR MOTHER!
To her, you will always be her little boy. My mother STILL wants to dress me in 1970's kid's fashions based on the shirts she sent me after my house burned down. My GAWD! Doens't that just make you shudder?
Ahem, anyway, the above is good advice.
TAG or Axe full packs, comes with soap, louffa, shower gel, body spray, shampoo, after shave, cologne. They'll compliment each other, and each brand has like 10 different scents.
Oh, and if the sales lady or a lady friend says something doesn't look good that you like, or thinks that something you like doesn't look good, LISTEN TO THEM!
Sneak back and buy the other one later to wear around the house.
Seperate your "around the house" stuff from your "going out" stuff.
if something gets a hole in it, either toss it, give it to a homeless guy, or put it in the "Clean the garage" stack.
Oh, and clean your damn room. If, on the off chance a woman agrees to come home to your mom's house with you, don't make her walk into a unmade mess that smells like cheetoes and desperation. Air it out too, and light some candles. NO INCENSE! She'll think you're a pot-head. Go with some scented candles, a Glad reusable in a power socket.
Now, for the second part:
Posters and pictures on the wall. What are they?
Music you listen too. What is it?
Books on the shelf, that you read all the time. What are they?
Knickknacks on your shelves. What are they?
(You want help from the ground up, I'll give it. Don't feel bad, you think THIS is bad, wait until a woman moves in with you. Say goodbye to Mr. Comfortable Chair, he's going to live at the dump.)
