3. Socks need to match suit
4. Don't wear athletic socks
5. Shoes need to be shined
6. Don't wear any accessories.  (A watch is fine)
7. If you have a beard - make sure it is trimmed.
8. Try to avoid wearing a suit that you can tell is from an expensive designer, because although it would seem like it would make you look good, the employer might pass you over thinking that you do not need this job.
