It sounds like it's cold where you're at, so for cold weather stuff I would recommend the all weather (rain, wind, and snow) jacket and pants from Craft, along with their baselayers that come in different ranges such as 0-30 degrees, 30-60 degrees, etc..., if you have cycling shoes, shoe covers are a must in the cold weather and craft makes a good pair of those as well.
Here's the pants I have (to be worn over cycling shorts, no pad): http://www.teamestrogen.com/prodCR_193363.html
And the jacket:

As for all weather stuff - I adore assos cycling gear, but it's expensive. My friend likes pearl azumi, although I've never tried them, it's more reasonably priced. And you can pretty much count out all new Castelli shorts since they started making their stupid kiss pad (you might as well not have a pad at all!). Jerseys are pretty easy, it's hard to mess those up, so any brand will do. I would recommend some tank top jerseys for the hotter months, my favorite brand of these are Descente. My biggest pet peeve is jerseys that are short! Descente makes them nice and long!
Welcome and good luck!
