I tend to ruin nice clothes, so I dress casual for work, and commute in my work clothes, so that's not particularly helpful.
But I actually prefer cheap dress pants for riding. I have black uniform pants for that purpose-- uniform pants for restaurant and hotel work, that is; permanent press, pleated front, machine watchable. I wear those for brevets (200 km rides) in fall-winter-spring. They are comfortable and hold up well. I prefer them over any cycling clothes I've tried.
