I consider myself progressive. Yet there has always been one thing which I could never handle. Black and Brown. Together. In an outfit. YUCK. It would send shivers down my spine. It also didn't help that I hate the color brown more than anything. Then, the winds started to change in September when I bought these fabulous brownish shoes to wear with an outfit that...had....black...in...it. Before I would have refused to let those brown shoes go anywhere near my feet, let alone with some black! Then a few weeks ago I bought this fantastic bag at Target. It is BROWN. Weird, right? And now I wear my brown bag with everything, and I LOVE it with my black clothes. I am now semi-over my fear of black and brown. I still hold some prejudice for dark brown paired with black, but light brown is in my good graces.
Here is a picture of me in a black and brown outfit.
Ew, you are disgusting. How could you ever be ok with mixing black and brown, it's like a cardinal sin.
ReplyDeleteJust kidding, I think it's super cute. Only the light tan-ish brown though. Start throwing in dark brown or multiple shades of brown and I'll have to make a phone call to the fashion police.
Just kidding again, I don't have the number for the fashion police. But if I ever do get my hands on Clinton Kelly's phone number I'll be sure to pass it on to you.
I wish I wasn't a freak that commented on everyone of your posts, undoubtedly very soon after you post them. C'est la vie.
Hahaha, who taught you that little saying?
ReplyDeleteAnd I think you pull off black + brown quite nicely.
I am so with you on that, but I think that the brown is light enough in your bag/shoes that it goes nicely. It's when the dark brown and black get together that makes my hiney cringe.
ReplyDeleteI did not know that black and brown do not go together until college. Julie, Sara, and Kayla taught me the ways. Well done with the black and brown pairing though - at first I didn't even notice that you had matched those two in your picture. This is how advanced my fashion sense is.
ReplyDeleteI will never let you live this down.
ReplyDeleteI think it depends on the color of brown. Light brown/cognac=good and i love it. Dark brown not so much....but sometimes i think it can be pulled of!
