If you could provide a picture that would be awesome.
I have dark brown hair, dark brown eyes, and a pretty pale complexion.

Depends on what you look like. Light hair? Dark hair? Color eyes? Complexion? All these things must be taken into account.

Wear a white shirt and a tan or gold or blue tie. The tie in the photo is fine too (the color).
Stick with white shirt here as it opens the type of color of the tie to anything brown/tan/blue/light blue/gold.
Your complexion isn’t really the issue. You need to coordinate the colors of the tie & shirt & suit. Again, stick with a white shirt and it will be hard to screw up the tie issue.

It looked black to me…but on the site it said it was dark brown?
If it’s actually the same color as the picture, and the camera just didn’t make it look black
then go for a white shirt with a pink tie
it’d be amazingly perfect
)
or a yellow shirt with a gray tie
if it’s dark brown go for a white shirt with a tie that’s the same color.

since the suit is dark brown & there is camel trim & blue stitching on the suit I would go with a light shade of blue for your shirt and a tie that has shapes & designs on it in blues and that camel color that is on the trim.

First of all, good on you for choosing a brown suit. Most people reject brown suits immediately, but they often look very stylish.
It sounds like you have a fairly high-contrast complexion, so you’re going to want to underscore that with a contrasting outfit.
A dark brown suit like the one you’ve picked goes well with a variety of colours — tan, gold, yellow — but for a contrasting look, go with a medium blue shirt. Choose something like this:
Couple that with a rich burgundy tie that incorporates some of the blue of the shirt in it, like this one:?$cls_page$&fmt=jpg&mode=page
Pair it with a nice pair of cordovan wintips and you’re set.
