That can be too much with a poncho or vest, though.</p> <p>Also I use necklaces (so would work with a simple top in black, over taupey bottoms.) &nbsp;There are metals than sort of look taupey and then there are faux stones and such. </p> <p>And, the reverse. I wear a lot of black bottoms so want to have&nbsp; a different top and sometimes I veer into taupey tops,&nbsp;and then will add&nbsp; black in necklace or scarf.<br />Or, though I'm <u>supposed</u> to be keeping to a limited and cool color palette, occasionally I'll fall for pants in a warm color&nbsp;, such as camel or mocha brown or something, &nbsp;that fit well, so I'll need to tie them in with the top, and black is one of those colors that you can wear with warm- or cool- neutral bottoms, but I'll want an echoing color. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-color-combos#post-1572584 Fri, 16 Oct 2015 13:57:32 +0000 Angie 1572584@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Em, how about a black sweater vest over the black top? Or stick with the brown.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-color-combos#post-1572570 Fri, 16 Oct 2015 13:08:38 +0000 em 1572570@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the neutral cords &amp; taupe-y ankle boots featured in this post. If I wanted to wear them with a black (or cooler toned) top, how should I finish off the outfit to tie warm-ish booties into the ensemble? FWIW, my hair is mahogany brown, but colorwise, I am a medium-contrast Winter. </p>
