Brown is a neutral, not a statement. It’s important to note that brown isn’t being treated as a statement color, but as a softer replacement for black. Swapping common black accessories like purses, belts, tights and boots for chocolate and shadow browns is an effective way to lean into the trend.

Rock your favorite shade of dark brown. Chocolate browns are a hard wear for many. Consider all shades of deep brown like cocoa, shadow, walnut and more to suit your cool-leaning or warm-leaning skin tone and seasonal color palette.

Deep Brown works with this year’s jewelry trends. Deep browns work effortlessly back to trending silver jewelry and silver studded accessories, while also pairing well with gold jewelry and metallics to those who prefer it.
