Goggles, gloves (because no one likes getting shot in the knuckles), pants then a top. When your getting on a bit and your knees and elbows can't take the punishment like they used to, then invest I'm elbow and knee pads.
As said before the companies above are all trustworthy, but to be honest you will he able to pickup a.bargain on here. Most guys take really good care of their kit before selling it on, most of the the time its almost like brand new.
As for what to buy, everything is good quality so it comes down to price and personal preference. Be warned, paintball sizes are a lot bigger than normal clothes sizes. I would say normally be an L/XL but I bought some M pants of here and there's loads of room.

I'd say that once you've got a decent set of googles some purpose made trousers are the best item to get first - you really don't want to mess up your knees and legs! I'd recommend proto as they are good value for starting out 
A good set of goggles.
Don't know about other suppliers, but I know eclipse do a great size chart on their websit so you can at least size yourself up for the correct fit.
In order of clothes that I would suggest getting them in;
Playing pants
Knee pads,
Arm pads
Jersey
Apart from the pads you can get everything else which is usually in pretty good nick on the sales forum here (just personal preference about the pads, they tend to get pretty wrecked and sweaty... Isn't it like buying someone else undies? )
