Brown and Black

December 20, 2012

One of the favorite things I rediscovered while in New York last weekend is how brown boots go with everything. As you know from last year’s post, I totally believe black and brown can look awesome together yet I don’t always think about my brown riding boots as universally as they should. I picked up this army green and black Zara dress over the weekend (you must click to see the details better; the faux leather detailing along the necklace totally sold me) and while I probably would have styled it differently had I been home, I paired it with brown boots — i.e. the only available option in the hotel room — and adore the result. The color contrast is better in person but, hey, this is an iPhone photo, so apologies, but it is what it is. Forgive me? 

dress: zara || black tights: c/0 hanes || boots: anne klein (old; similar) || puffy coat: kenneth cole via today show deals & steals (similar, obsessed with faux fur hood!) || bag: rebecca minkoff mini mac (wore all weekend, day and night) || hat: target (obsessed with the pom!) || necklace: c/o in pink (sold out; similar)

    I think brown and black are just fine together, Cheetahs and Tigers wear it all the time. Your dress is super cute, I can’t wait to see what you wear it with when you get back home!
