Black & BrownTogether??

I've been asked a few times if black and brown can go together. The answer is, Yes! I've created just a couple of easy guidelines to pull it off perfectly. Now don't start thinking you can wear black socks with brown sandals. The world just isn't ready for that yet (or ever will be....) But black leggings with brown boots? Oh yeah! Take a peek at the pictures below and the quick explanations, then start experimenting.

See the difference the contrast makes for the entire outfit? This is a quick and easy way to update your overall look.

Usually with this black and white polka dot shirt, people would think to grab a black or even colored cardigan to pair it with. This darker beige goes great and totally pulls the outfit together.

Notice how the browns I have used are on the lighter side? This way it's a good contrast with the black. If you go too dark it starts to look like you may need to get your eyes checked because your shades are just a little off. We don't want that. By using obvious shade differences, it creates more of a contrast.

Good luck pairing black and brown! Let us know what you find!
