Buffy ,'Lessons'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, nail polish, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I've worn black to funerals and weddings, but I'm a girl. I've also not worn black to a funeral and worn red to a wedding. A slinky sexy red dress.
I'm possibly not the person to ask. It also depends on the locale. Had some fun conversation about dress at lisah's wedding. No condemnation, just some folks being able to identify the locals vs out of towners by the outfits. Apparently, us Baltimoreans tend more to funky, though not exclusive.
In the costume world, a 2 button suit means "I am an FBI agent." A three or four button suit means "I am evil or a priest or both."
ETA or, as Beverly says, Mafia. Although that is mostly with a black shirt and white tie :)
Of course, I've never really thought about it since I've never gone to a funeral and don't ever intend to.
?
None at all?

It's true -- I've noticed it when I was there!
FYI y'all -- Downton Abbey on Masterpiece is good times.
A black suit looks either mafiosi or gummint.
Or CorpGoth! Or, black suit + red tie = Revenge era MCR fan.
I vote black suit. My opinion is probably suspect.
Ooh, I also bought this tie at Ross since I don't have any black ties. I think it was the most expensive tie on the rack, at a whopping $12.99.
Jilli! I saw the GCS book in Games of Berkeley yesterday. I was excited.

Or angel!
Or, really, completely normal. I see them all the time.
Oh, I need to take advantage of the buffista shopping service/hivemind! Help me find a purse like this: [link]
(Yes, I would sew a skeleton hand onto it. What?)
Crap! I forgot to watch/record BOTH The Cape Downton Abbey! Argh.

One of those, I think, is worse than the other.
