Expanding Wardrobe Suggestions? /u/Pretty-Care-7811 /r/malefashionadvice

I’ve recently started working in education administration. The dress code there is pretty much anything from chinos and polos (which I don’t wear) to a suit and tie. I’m typically sticking with a “standard” 2-button, single breasted, notch lapel with a dress shirt and an occasional tie. As of right now, I have the following: Suit Supply dark gray flannel Havana 120s, Suit Supply navy Perennial, two custom/MTMs (from a private business owner, not Indochino/Spier/etc.): a dark green herringbone and a charcoal (almost black), Kenneth Cole Chillflex medium gray, and a Tiger of Sweden mahogany. Everything is 100% wool, half canvas except for the KC. Everything I have is in the $500-$1000 range, and that’s pretty much where I plan to stay for the near future (OTR/MTM stuff, mainly). My style is pretty basic, so I don’t have stripes/windowpane/etc., but I do like textured weaves. My question is: what suggestions do you have for expanding the wardrobe? I’m leaning toward replacing the KC with a “nicer” medium gray wool, but I also live in Arizona, so should I start looking to build some lightweight linen/cotton/tropical wool stuff for when the temperature heats up? Or would it be better to expand on the basics and maybe get some more shades of gray and blue? Some combination of all of the above? Thanks for your input.
