What colours do you like to wear? Do you have different suits for different types of meetings/occasions?
I found a really nice grey blazer. I almost bought it but didn't only because I know I don't have anything to go with it. I went through the store trying to come up with a nice blouse and pants to go with it... no luck!
What colour would you recommend to match a grey blazer?
What colour suits do you prefer?
What colour looks more professional? fun? serious?
:) thanks in advance for your replies!

I think a lot of it would depend on your skin color, hair color and what you feel comfortable. Blue or yellow would like nice, so would brown. Is it solid or patterned. Almost every color would go with grey. Grey makes some people look washed out. I always have liked bright bold colors. I could see a red, purple,royal blue blouse with a black skirt or pants.

I generally wear business suits sometimes to office.
I mainly buy black or grey business suits. sometimes also light cream colour does the trick.But its not that there are different suits to match different occassions.

ok i'm going to admit right off the bat here momma, i'm not trendy, i'm not even even caring most days that i match or not. lol. However, i u nderstand that in professional positions you must dress to impress. I am a stay at home mom, i dont think i need to impress my kids ;P
Back to the matter at hand now!! Doesn't grey go with just about anything ? I mean... its grey.. ;) What if you just wore a white blouse under it with a black pair of pants ? or any colour pair of pants if you are already wearing white and grey would look ok wouldnt it ? I dunno... but a light pink camasol would probably look nice too. haha i have been watching tooo much what not to wear for my liking! It comes on right before baby story si the only reason. I SWEAR!
