If you grew up watching shows like What Not to Wear like me, you probably can remember a list of fashion rules that used to be enforced quite popularly. Don't wear white after labor day, don't mix different patterns, and the list goes on. Fashion gives people the space to express themselves, so it brings me joy knowing that these rules have vastly decreased in popularity. One rule that I still found myself listening to is that black and brown can't go together. However, on a scroll through Instagram I found a slew of outfits that most certainly prove that rule wrong and thought I'd share.
If you, like me, thought black and brown wouldn't go together, the outfits below will inspire you differently. The color duo has become my favorite to wear and I know after seeing the looks I've rounded up, it may be yours too.
You probably already own a black winter jacket in your collection, but a brown one can be just as useful. Pair it with black slacks and your favorite sneakers and you've got yourself the perfect chic and laid back look. Whenever I wear a brown outfit, I find myself wondering what shoes I could pair with.
