I'm a student so going to a tailor is out of the question although I'm not so sure I'd even think of that on my own if I had bundles of money. I guess I should try that sometime.
I've been fairly happy with the clothes I've bought by mail order though, there's been a few snags sure but you can send them back and it tends to be cheaper. I do go to the store sometimes, especially for jeans as it's hard to find pairs that fit me since I've got skinny long legs.
As for the skin color thing, I can honestly say that I have no idea whatsoever on how to judge that.
