Sometimes the simplest combination can have dramatic results and I love the idea of wearing a monochromatic ensemble. If you choose a clear, saturated shade–red and vivid pink shades are my favorites–you really need nothing else but perhaps a simple pair of hoops. You can try a suit, but to keep it out of “politician” territory you need a blouse in another similar shade, which is often hard to find right and an investment in one more piece. A sweater and pants can be mixed and matched with other basics in your wardrobe to make them worth it. (Plus some pieces are also on sale.)
