Do the blazers have to be the same color as the pants? or can they just be a complementary color? like brown pants/ pink blazer

I honestly don't know on that one. Since it says suits in the dress code I'd aim for matching, but it's quite possible that complimentary is fine

Yea... I have a matching black suit but then I have a lot of separate dress pants, a gray one and a pin stiped one and I thought that I could maybe match them with the black blazer. Do you think that might be ok?

i plan on mix-matching

I think it's probably fine. I don't really see why there would be a problem with it

thanks. glad to know i'm not the only one mixing and matching
