Also I recently heard a rule from some of my brothers that you shouldn't wear seersucker after labor day or before Easter; I kind of see the point to this (seersucker being light material generally unsuited for the usually cold weather of that time period) but I've never heard that one before. Anyone more familiar with the real South know the background on that?
Off white =/= white. I don't usually see white men's pants, so I don't think you really have to worry about that. What guys SHOULD worry about is the wearing navy and black together....DON'T DO IT! Summer, Winter, Spring or Fall - black + navy = wrong.

You're right about seersucker - lighter material for hotter weather.
