 If you are looking for a solid black suit with an old fashioned professional look you can get it almost anywhere. At that price range just go the the Men's Warehouse or something.

 I've got 1 black suit but I almost never wear it.

 I wear grey, tan and brown. Stylin' and pimpin'. Even for work or conferences I don't wear black usually.

 But I don;t really know what the popular suit fashions are in Florida. Here in Asia it's really different. Shiny silver is popular. ALso really tight suits and really gay looking shit.

I wish I could get a really nice fitted one.... but the problem is my weight is always fluctuating, plus they make those for like 160 lbs fellas that don't really work out, I always have to get them tailored!

Try Men's Warehouse.

Black is not going to be as versatile as you might think.  Charcoal is more neutral.

This would look nice and be good for spring/summer

Getting it during a sale will make it more difficult to get it quickly since there will probably be a lot of sales.  The tailors don't work on just suits.  They work on everything, including women's clothing.  I think you'd be better off at Men's Warehouse type of store.  Jos. A Banks...  Getting something tailored that quickly may be a challenge.  Are there any independent stores nearby?  You know, the old-fashioned kind of place your grandfather would've gone?  They would likely be very accommodating.

I like the first pic I posted for something "fresh".

Is this suit being measured for the 'Fat' Ach, or the 'Svelte' Ach?      ;D
