Black vs brown?

Question

I have always been told you cannot wear brown and black together. I think its fine. IE: Black belt with brown shoes, brown shoes with black shirt, black shoes with a brown shirt......? Is this no black with brown a myth? Is it over? Can I wear my brown shoes with any jeans and shirt?

Answer 1

Yes You Can! It is perfectly fine to wear black with brown. Fashion has lost a lot of the boundaries is used to have. Let go...Be free...And have fun with your style. Don't think about it that much.

Answer 2

Depends on the shade of brown. Never wear a dark brown and dark black. Especially if it's a dark brown shirt with unfaded black jeans. That = blech. If it's a much lighter shade of brown, like a mocha or caramel, sure. Black goes along nicely. But the black can't overpower the brown.

Answer 3

Really strong colours (purple, lime green, fluorescent pink) often looks better with black) while more muted colours (mustard yellow, rust, sage green) usually look better with brown. If it's just a pair of shoes it shouldn't matter much what your shirt's colour is. But yes, avoid wearing black and brown together.

Answer 4

the only time brown can go with black is in a leopard print and that is still a stretch.

i think it's tacky to wear brown with black and that's basically the same thing the whole fashion industry thinks.

i also don't think you should wear red with pink.

at the same time, if you think it's fine, then wear it. others, like me, just will think it's tacky looking...but does my opinion really matter to you?

Answer 5

It totally depends on how it looks together
But don't ever wear black and brown on it's own, add some other colours in it too .. like pink or a turqoise.
It looks good when it's boho but that about it....

Answer 6

black + brown together = NO i dont think black and brown look very good together but it is a matter of personal opinion

Answer 7

now that you've brought it up, brown and black really don't look good together...well not so much in my opinion. but if you like it then wear it.

Answer 8

nonono!! sometimes you may think it works! but it looks tacky and it doesn't match at ALL! they just clash. especially the belt and shoes. those should always be coordinating with ure outfit. and it they don't they will pop out and make you look like a fashion diasaster!

Answer 9

it relies upon no matter in case you desire to choose for a unbelievable or greater organic look. black is sturdy in case you desire to look such as you're donning makeup and brown is sturdy in case you desire to look greater organic. neither of them are greater effective than the different, relies upon on your form.

Answer 10

Don't wear it together. They don't look good together cause their both a basic color. IMO
