help for choosing outfits for college in a hot climate?
im going to college soon and I want to leave a good impression, it's my first time trying to wear things that look decent, and the culture here is fairly laid back for guys when it comes to clothes, I want to dress better for 2 reasons, first is to leave a good impression on people and second is to have a good chance with finding a partner maybe.
the normal weather up until mid-November is 25-30C in the day with a hot sun, after nov we might get some rain and 10-15C weather, I've added a pic at the end of what I have for colder days (each day I have at least half an hour of walk to college and around 1.5H of commute.
if I need to buy something please tell me why and provide pictures, I don't know a lot of terminology in fashion and clothes, thanks for the help!
here are my clothes (for reference I'm, looking a bit skinny, 1.80m, size 46 in shoes, and in pants W36 L34):

Best fabric for hot weather is linen!
You should provide a budget
Try getting some linen trousers and shirts and you'll be breezy
And yes go for linen, cotton/linen blends, or lightweight cotton
Avoid slimmer fits to let the air flow
It's not about budget more like what shirts go best with what bottom wear and why.
And also if I need to ask a piece of clothing; what it is and what to choose?
Most of my clothes are cotton
I'm awful at color matching and understanding what goes with what, so I need your help
color matching is about color temperature; in general you want cool tones OR warm tones
these are not rules set in stone but it's a good start
then you might want to balance the fit between top and bottom
look around here for WAYWT or inspo and see if anything catches your eye
Can't you help me with the clothes I sent here already?
