I have heard that black and brown together are a faux pas, but I think they’re perfect for fall. It’s all a matter of preference I guess :)

    I used to be a strong hater of brown and black together. However the older I get and more comfortable in my own fashion choices, I have grown to embrace brown and black together.

    I always say “I hate black and brown together!” and then I’ll see this sweater that I LOVE that’s black and brown so…. I guess I’m just lying to myself.

    Back in about 2001 my sister yelled at me for wearing black pants and brown leather shoes. I told her they were both neutrals and all neutrals go together. I stick to that statement 11 years later and am happy to see some others come on board.

    I completely agree with this “faux pas”, it’s too perfect to neglect this time of year! It says chic and comfy at the same time!

    I’m all for brown and black! I still remember the first time I wore black tights and brown shoes back in 2005… I was nervous, it makes me giggle now!!

    All earth tones are complementary neutrals in my book!

    Looove. My favorite is the mini dress with a slouchy sweater.
