External CSS is the best choice. With an external CSS file you can make site wide changes from one location.

If you need inspiration for colour schemes, then Google color scheme. The results will give you tools to create colour schemes and there are some sites with colour schemes already compiled.

When selecting your colour scheme you also have to consider colour contrast. Sometimes, even for visitors with regular vision, combining colours without enough contrast creates a readability issue.

besides that, they'll be cached. Any inline/embedded css or js files are automatically downloaded with each page request.

I am an external css fan. Improves code to content ratio and is way easier to manage when you are keeping the look of your site consistent over multiple pages.

i think external syles sheet is better than inline and embedded style sheet as u can control hole page from one file and also no need of defing style in each page
external css also reduce your work and save time
