On second thought, if you only have one suit, should you stick to plain black?
No
If you don't already have a suit, I guess you don't need one for work.
So for you a suit is just for going out, which means you get more flexibility.
Black is the most formal color. Funerals. Weddings. Preachers. You might think you look like a badass, but a cheap black suit usually looks dopey.
Usually the darker the color, the more formal. The lighter the color, the more casual.
A medium grey or blue would work well for a single casual suit. Probably grey is the most versatile color, you can wear anything with that.
As for shoes, try tan leather, not black. Darker=more formal, lighter=more casual.
