There are countless ways to remix black with browns in outfits. One on-trend way to wear the combination is a dark solid pairing from head-to-toe. There are lighter, brighter and patterned options too. Below are four renditions that remix lighter browns and black with tans and taupes to create a higher contrast. 

1. Pattern Mixed

This outfit combines black and browns with three pattens. A pair of cinnamon snakeskin skinnies is combined with a geometrically patterned tunic. A cropped floral jacket tops the pairing. Chocolate brown boots with black heels match the black and browns in the patterns. The tan components in the patterns lighten and brighten the palette, and match the model’s hair. Add a bag in the same palette.

2. Co-ord

A patterned sweater and skirt set, or co-ord, in toffee and black is an easy look to pull together. Add a pair of tall black boots and you’re almost done. Add a bag that works with the palette and a topper if needed. The black eyewear works well with the pattern. I see a tan bag to match the model’s hair as the bag of choice.

3. Shearling

A column of black is created by pairing a black pullover with black flared jeans. A chocolate brown shearling coat with contrast taupe lining tops the column. The contrast light trim makes a bold statement. Cinnamon boots with black heels add another shade of brown to the look. Add a black or brown bag.

4. Animal Print

Animal patterns tend to incorporate black and browns making it an easy way to wear the palette. Here, a pair of animal print wide cropped pants is paired with a black faux leather black boxy shirt. Feel free to button all the buttons to cover up midriff skin. Dark chocolate brown patent pumps and a lighter chocolate brown bag complete the look. Add jewellery, eyewear and watch as desired.
