Do Black and Brown Go Together

Do Black and Brown Go Together

Styling an outfit around neutral colors is one of the easiest to create. Blacks, browns, greys, white, beige and navy are the classics. Camel, taupe, olive and ivory should be included as well. Do Black and Brown go togther- yes they do and the Fall and Winter Seasons are best for this color combo. Combining black and brown can instantly make your outfits look elegant and wearing black and brown together has become an increasingly popular trend. We are sharing our thoughts on this trend and have created outfits that provide styling inspiration for you.

Do Black and Brown Go Together

Do Black and Brown Go Together- yes they most certainly do- think Burberry, Prada and Gucci to name a few designers that have iconic pieces that feature these colors. We love a chocolate brown and black and also camel and black. Really, there are so many shades of brown that look elegant, sophisticated and chic styled with black.

How To Wear Black and Brown Together

One of the easiest ways to wear black and brown together would be a jacket or blazer out of a black and brown plaid. Another way is a dress or shirt in a leopard print with black and brown in it and pair it with a pair of black pants, black shoes and a black belt. Mix textures- break up an entire black outfit with a cocoa brown suede belt and purse. We think camel and black looks so elegant-top an all black outfit with a camel jacket or scarf. Or take an all black outfit and style with a leopard print tote or purse.

We have created five outfits that combine black and brown for a variety of occasions. Let us know which ones you like by commenting below- thanks.

Love Varley? This Hawley Half-Zip Sweatshirt is in a beautiful Coffee Bean Color- paired with the Varley Leggings and the Aritzia Super Puff Vest is great for an outdoor look. We added the St. Barths Tote by Naghedi. This outfit would be a nice travel look too. We have linked each item below. Please click on the photo you would like more information about.

First of all, we both bought these shoes the other day- the Vince Camuto Sorenn d’Orsay Pump in Vintage Ivory Roccia Snake. The d’Orsay silhouette is feminine, yet sturdy with the angular block heel. It is comfortable and will go with so many items in your closet. We styled this with the taupe Lauren Ralph Lauren Ferlee Shirt and Bev’s favorite wool pant from Banana Republic- click here.

We have added this outfit as an example of mixing textures. The Boden Bronte Ottoman Dress is polished enough for work, is very comfortable and the front pockets are a bonus. We styled this black dress with the Inez Paloma Boot in Mocha Croco and the Brahmin Melbourne Collection Dayan Satchel Bag in Pecan. The rich brown tones and croc embossing on these boots and this purse go perfectly with the J Crew Collection Leather Lady Jacket in Deep Auburn. The gold buttons bring out the gold details in the Brahmin Satchel. All of these brown pieces go so well with the black backdrop of the dress.

Leopard print blends black and brown together so well. The DVF Barlow Dress and the Karen Millen Georgette Belted Dress are great examples of this. We styled these with black accessories to complete the look. The Jeffrey Campbell Authority Pump and the Radley London Sloane Street medium ziptop grab go with both of these dresses. Also, you could pair either of these dresses with Sam Edelman’s Sylvia Knee High Boot in chocolate suede. Bev has these and loves their simple elegance.

We have styled this Banana Republic Wool-Blend Scuba Midi Dress in chocolate ganache brown with this beautiful updated black leather jacket from J.Crew- the Jodie Leather Lady Jacket. Wear this brown and black combo with a bootie- like the Sam Edelman Saige Cap Toe Ankle Bootie, the Radley London the Lily Handbag, the Banana Republic Signature Silk Scarf and the Ippolita Classico Open Cascade Earring. We leaned into the silver earring because of the silver zipper on the leather jacket. Click on any photo for more details and information on that item.
