brown purse with black clothes?

Question

Is it ok to wear black clothes with a brown purse. I got an awesome brow bag for Christmas, but a-lot of my clothes are black

Answer 1

You can - but I would balance the "look" with a brown scarf, brown shoes, etc.

Answer 2

Black And Brown Purse

Answer 3

Yes, you could pull it off if the purse is of the right style. Black clothes require something structured or slouchy (like a hobo bag). If your purse fits either one of those descriptions then go for it. Coordinate with accents such as red jewelry or a pretty non-black hat (once again, something with red will coordinate well). The old shoes/purse should match rule could also be used here. However, it is rather difficult to find two browns that really match. Instead, I'd focus on finding things that coordinate.

Remember, though, that the black/brown combination creates a much more casual look so when you really need to look put together, I'd leave the brown bag at home.

Best of luck to you! Stay chic!

Answer 4

That's a no-no. It's ok if the purse has some black on it though. Black and brown do not fit together when you wear a brown dress with a black necklace, or a black dress with a brown belt, but it's ok if you where black pants with brown boots or black shoes with a brown coat. That sort of thing.

Answer 5

Brown looks great with black! You just want to balance it out. I understand you have a wonderful brown bag so try pick up things from the brown bag and put them in your outfit. example: brown boots and bag look awesome with a black dress or even black shirt and pants. Also dont be afraid of color, brown also looks great with blues and pinks. Im sure you'll wear your bag well.

Answer 6

Sounds great, but it really matter the stlye of the clothes and purse. If your clothes are like gothic, but you have the brown LV then no. But yea, I'm pretty sure brown and black are good.

Answer 7

Black is going with each and every thing. gentle brown is a independent so which you will pair it with something to boot.... Black and lightweight brown could completely pass collectively while something like Black and military do no longer pass collectively.

Answer 8

I don't see a problem with it. Just use some other brown, say in your shoes or boots. Maybe your jewelry could have some shade of brown, too. The browns don't have to match, just coordinate.

Answer 9

black goes with every colour you can think of you can have a black dress with bright orange shoes and it won't look strange! so yeah the brown bag would look very nice with your black clothes
