I would wear that whilst riding and then get changed into fresh clothes at work. I can wear whatever i like at work thou, have done shorts and t-shirt before. Just wear whatever you feel comfortable in when riding. Appropriate clothing to match the weather is a must thou if spending a long time on the saddle.

To begin with I wore ordinary clothes while cycling.
These days I only wear proper (Lycra) cycle shirt and shorts. Anything else is too restictive or too hot.

@Ayush
As available from bike shops.
They have elastic around the arms and waist to prevent the shirt flapping at speed, three pockets on the back (because the shorts have none), a high collar and longer at the back than the front so that it doesn't ride up when you lean forward.

Umm... I guess your talking Mountain Bikes? I always go for more gears rather than less because you tend to get newer, better quality gear sets with a higher number of gears.

More importantly, go for the best, lightest, frame you can afford.

Lastly, I've been beaten to the end of 100kms by experienced, very fit men in thier 50's on 2nd hand no-name bikes. There is no substitute for FITNESS - time spent on the bike.
