Brown, The New Black

Black is a color that is classic and ever trending!  Although black can seem to be the go-to staple, sometimes it can prove to be a bit boring.  Over the last few years and especially this year I have noticed a common trend of BROWN being the outfit staple.

Benefits of using Brown Vs. Black

1. Brown is versatile and can take any outfit into business or casual attire.

2. Whether you are have a fair or deeper skin, brown always compliments the skin tone.  It can make your skin appear warmer in tone and give you a healthier look. (Black tends to be more of a contrast and can wash your skin tone out, especially fairer toned individuals)

3.Brown can be used as a more neutral element to your outfit. Black tends to be a little more on the formal side.  Although forgiving it can be intimidating.  Brown brings back the youthful and inviting aspect to a wardrobe.

4.  Brown is the perfect accent to keep your wardrobe from being too uniform.  ( A brown bag VS a black bag)

Here are some examples of where you can replace the black and bring out the brown in your wardrobe.
