It depends on who it is. Little girls look wonderful in cotton candy colored pastels, Men can wear a pastel colored tie or shirt, teens will wear whatever is in style and women will generally wear whatever they look slimmest in, preferably a lighter color, not black, grey or brown.

Florals are good also.
