Color Combos to Wear: Black and Brown

I remember when it used to be a HUGE fashion no to wear black and brown together. I’m not sure why this was a rule (maybe people thought it was too “dark”?!) but I certainly wouldn’t follow it if it still was. I love a good black and brown outfit combo in all seasons! Here are four ways (plus a bonus outfit!) that I’m wearing black and brown together as we head out of summer and on to the cooler seasons.

If you prefer video content, the reel is HERE.

Do you wear black & brown together?

Outfit 1: black denim shorts, brown tank, brown cashmere sweater, and brown leather teva sandals— I love wearing a sweater with shorts on warmer fall days (this is a screenshot of a video—I forgot to take photos of this outfit!).

Outfit 2: taupe brown maxi dress, black cardigan, brown leather teva sandals, and matching brown leather bag with a black floral scarf on it—this dress is such a good one (also come in a ton of colors) and transitions into fall so nicely! You can wear it with a cropped cardigan like I am here, or a longer duster cardigan like I did in my outfit round up earlier this week (this is a screenshot of a video—I forgot to take photos of this outfit!).

Outfit 3: a brown turtleneck, black wide leg jeans, black Mary Jane flats, and a brown silk scarf —I love a fun wide leg pant! They are such a great silhouette and having fun with fashion doesn’t just mean adding color, it can also mean different silhouettes too!

Outfit 4: a brown cotton sweater, black straight leg jeans, and brown blundstone boots—my blundstones are a go-to in the cooler months and I love pairing them with black. Add a cozy sweater on top and you’re good to go!

And as a bonus, here is another outfit I’ve worn recently that is also black and brown!

Outfit 5: A little cropped tank is so cute with wide leg jeans! I loved adding the charm necklace for some bling. I finished the outfit with my Birkenstock sandals in this pretty brown color.
