I love black and browns and wear often in the cold seasons! Your animal coat it is really a showstopper and teh new boots are looking yummy, too.
Interresting enough, I have a beautifull yummy juicy rich brown (more cognac shade) pair of flat leather booties bought a few years ago and I never wore it to date as they are same shiny as yours here- almost like patent!
Now, you have to know I like patent shoes and have several loafers in this finish but all are darker black, navy or burgundy and use them daily with my sirts with black sheers to blend in a column of darks lengthening my legs but I juyt didn't realised that the cognac browns will be such an accent on my legs....but I didn't have any brown outerwear either to match or bookend with. I have brown sweaters but you get to see them indoors, only. Also have patterned scarves to match but that prooved too little amount of repeating color for my liking.
So, I guess a coat like yours, would be the best solution.
Repeating with an uni colored bag was a bit blah for me (and I also didn't have one) but never thought of a patterned bag like your's Fendi one here, either- brilliant solution!
Now, will dig these boots out to try again as soon winter arrives here...
Thanx for posting!
