Suit Color


"Everything looks worse in black and white."

- Joel Killinger

Choosing a suit color can be difficult if you don't know what your looking for.

The first thing you have to worry about is what the occasion is and what is appropriate. Black is socially acceptable for a funeral, however white and pink are definitely not.

Next you have to think about your own complexion and what will match up well with your skin tone. If you happen to be as ghostly white as me you should not attempt to wear a khaki suit.

Lastly you have to consider what each color suit says about you. For instance a blue pinstripe suit gives off a portrayal of power and authority where as a white suit gives off a more relaxed aura.

I've compiled a short list of some of the colors a person may want to wear below. Click on each one to get a more in-depth look at each.
