Heh, I think the objection to suits and ties is that they are often no better looking that shorts/t-shirt. I had no style for the first 20 years of my life, regarding it as simply vanity and not worthwhile. Turns out it can be fun to develop your own style. It is a lot more than 'wearing a tie three times a week'. It means moving beyond Dr. Who tees and thinking about colors and lines; and looking in a mirror once in a while. It doesn't take too much time or money, and is great when you get complements from strangers. It is correct that fit is important. I would say the most important. Get rid of the too-large t-shirts and too-short pants. And never ever buy an uncomfortable dress shirt.
