Over the past couple months I've stumbled upon some nice budget alternatives that I figured I'd share with you all. Sorry If they've already been mentioned, but here they are:
Skyfall lodge jacket:

not a perfect match, and the collar has a contrasting color but hey, you get the overall look and style for $45. at least that's what this ebay member is offering them for, prices may be higher elsewhere.
just search for "lucky brand goleta" on ebay or google.
Skyfall tab collar shirts:

just ordered one of these and I love it. they have regular and trim fit. the trim fit isn't as fitted as I'd like but no one will notice under your suit jacket. it sucks that they only have white and a light blue in their oxford tab collar but it's about the only place online you'll find a trim fit tab collar that doesn't cost you and arm and a leg.
Skyfall ties:

certainly not up to tom ford standards, but I think their grenafaux ties work well for a skyfall look. pair the midnight navy grenafaux tie with a light blue shirt and charcoal suit and you're good to go. the charcoal and black grenafaux also look good. for $15 a tie you can't go wrong.
QoS Harrington:

this is the abercrombie & fitch rollins pond jacket. these are hard to find and ebay is probably your best bet. I snagged one of these up a while ago and it's definitely one of my favorite jackets. has the harrington collar and NO elastic on the cuffs or waistband. these are slim fit, and run very small. definitely size up.
well that's all I got right now. hope someone can make a nice bond outfit out of some of this stuff
