Suit mods

I am coming to a close with Fallout 3. I've pretty much done everything tangential, leaving only the main quest line. So....onto New Vegas! I have a character all built and everything. But there's a specific problem I need top resolve to have full immersion: the suits. Now, my character is going to be a light/no armor character who wears the armored suit. Problem is....the look:

 

See, this is how it will look:

My character has two very big problems with this. The first might be resolvable with a Tailor-Made version of Fallout New Vegas: those shoes are not the things you want to wear into combat, nor around the wasteland. If there is a modular boot thing like in Tailor Maid, it's not an issue.

 

The second is the tie. Now, I don't like the tie design as is, but it enrages my character. You see, if she's going to have to wear a tie with her suit, it's not her preference, but that's fine. However, a tie is supposed to look like THIS:

not the loose style. A loose tie like that is crass and slovenly in way that only is appropriate to (and I'm quoting her here): Rodney Dangerfield and cretins who clearly show that they are fit only for working on a factory floor. Yeah, that's harsh. So...I at least need to make a adjustment, certainly to her suit and probably the business suits generally. This is one of her psycho buttons. There is no compromise with her on this.

If there is no mod to make this needed change (and I can't believe there would be no clothing mod with a nonsexual, sensible skirt suit sans tie) and no one is willing to make one, then *I* have to make one myself. In that case, someone needs to explain to me how to make such a modification, and I don't have the first clue where to start. Please, will someone teach me how to do this?

There really is not much of a market for suits in general, not something most people would consider to wear into battle I suppose.

You could try this its more sensible to me: http://newvegas.nexusmods.com/mods/45747

 

Or tutorial for your own armor:

This is actually useful. Theresa doesn't like the pantsuit concept but...it might be practical. In any case, if I can manipulate the meshes, I can take the tops and put them with the vanilla bottoms. That will work nicely. But I do know designing meshes is above my pay grade any time soon, so....are there more practical women's dress shoes from any mod that are more practical, and still appropriate, with a woman's suit? I mean....a tailor maid pair of mercenary boots would work just fine, just take them off when in town (I'm that kind of a roleplayer).

 

But there are no tie fixes? I mean, are there any obstacle to taking the scientist tie knot, and meshing it over the grimy business suit for and then retexturing it for a seamless match? Cause honestly, I want to do that. Plus....every Fallout game I hone it straight on the power armor, and New Vegas is the first game where light to no armor is remotely a responsible idea and I REALLY want to try it out.
