On Sundays in November, the priest wears green as long as we are in Ordinary Time, unless a major feast falls on Sunday like Christ the King (which is always the last Sunday in Ordinary Time) in which case he wears white (gold may be substituted). At the end of November, we enter Advent, so his Sunday vestments switch to Violet. On weekdays, he would wear the color required for the particular feast being celebrated: red for martyrs, white for other saints, etc.
October is in Ordinary time and the color would be green unless there is a special Mass or funeral.

White vestments are worn
Roman Catholic AnswerMonks, nuns, sisters, and priest all wear the robe that is the color for their Order. For instance, Benedictines usually wear black, Cisterians wear white, Franciscans wear brown or grey depending on which branch they belong to, some may even wear black. Diocesan priests wear black. The only time they would wear a different color robe would be a priest - be they religious or diocesan - when they are celebrating Mass. Everyone would wear the same color everyday, but a priest would put on a white alb over his habit, and a chasuble for the color of the liturgical feast he was celebrating at Mass.
White, or white and gold, is the color of vestments during the Christmas Season.
.Catholic AnswerThe robe the priest wears all year at Mass is called an alb and is white (the word alb comes from the Latin word for white). During Advent the priest wears a violet chasuble over this.
Often, a banner matching priest vestment color is in front of altar, the color being associated with the church time, like purple as it is in Lent. It does not always match; if priest is doing funeral he will wear white but the altar may still be purple.
Off-white is NOT a liturgical color approved by the Catholic Church.
Priests wear black colored tunics. This color was chosen to represent the hierarchy of clergy members. For example, the pope wears white, bishops wear amaranth red, and cardinals wear scarlet red.
