Krishna's Color is described in most of the reference book as MeghVarna or MeghVarnam. i.e. the color of clouds that are filled with water or clouds that are ready to shower rain. Thsis means color is dark blue. Sometimes this color is also mistaken as Black as thats why different name as Shyam or Shyam Sundar etc. But as far as most reference books goes, Krishna's color is described as Meghvarnam.
