How to Wear Brown With Black in the Same Look?

Since always, black and brown have been classified as two diametrically opposed colors and impossible to associate. Two sworn enemies, in a way. According to this stereotype, one should never ever wear them together at the risk of committing more than a fashion faux-pas; an authentic blasphemy towards good taste.

In short, I can tell you that this era is over and it is high time to reconcile these two colors. If you also want to mix black and brown in your looks, here are the outfits that I propose.

Look # 1: two colors, two types of leather

For this first silhouette, I wanted to mix both colors and materials. My starting point is the Zara skinny black jeans with a light wash on the front. For the brown part, I found a piece of wool with a patch pocket on the front khaki.

After fulfilling my mission to prove that two pieces in black and brown can be worn together, I set myself the goal to convince you that you can marry two kinds of leather. Here, I dare the combination of a dark brown smooth leather jacket and black suede boots. You can also add a beige or cream scarf and a black leather pouch.

Look # 2: the chic touch

This second look is more focused on a chic urban style. I asked myself the following question: what would a dynamic thirty-something young man want, that black and brown bring a touch of trendy elegance to his style?

I simply answer this question by putting on a Zara chino camel - ok, it's not quite brown -, a black cotton sweater with a zipper at the collar and a black denim jacket also found at Zara's, with the fur collar that recalls the models of the 60s.

For the chic touch, I recommend a pair of black leather ankle boots with a buckle closure on the side. You can also wear a gray patterned scarf to slice a little with the two dominant shades.

Look # 3: the dandy revisited

For this last look, I did not draw in my closet, but I did my shopping online to make your job easier. After the urban chic, I left on a style very fashionable at the moment, the modern dandy! For this, I selected tweed effect tweed trousers in dark brown. A strong piece that you can wear with a total black top look, consisting of a turtleneck, a round neck sweater, and a trench. We play the mixed card thoroughly on this outfit and that's what we were looking for, right?

If you really want to cultivate the dandy side of the outfit, you need a pair of black oxfords and a glossy chestnut cashmere scarf. A typical gentleman from across the Channel, believe me.

You see, do not stay planted on old trends and fashion beliefs. Men wholesale clothing fashion is evolving and you must first and foremost enjoy yourself. Try to mix colors that are said improbable. Get codes and who knows if you will not be an avant-garde, precursor of the style?
