I Love Wearing Brown, You Should Too!

How does the color brown make you feel? Some of the key characteristics associated with brown in color psychology include strength and reliability, and it’s a color often associated with resilience, dependability, security, and safety. Personally, when I see brown I think of earthiness which makes me feel solid and secure. Some view brown as a “sad” color and may be hesitant to wear it. If you’re unsure about wearing brown, please allow me to share some of my personal style tips and suggestions to help you fall in love with the shade!

For starters, let us remember all the wonderful shades of brown! We’ve got beige, camel, tan, caramel, chocolate, coffee, and butterscotch…to name just a few! I like to use brown as my neutral so any of these brown shades pair well with other more vibrant colors!

If brown isn’t your go-to choice, how about starting with a brown accessory? Maybe a chic brown bag? Here are some photos I took on a recent trip to Wilmington, NC. I felt super confident in my look, and the star of the show was the brown (coffee to be exact) bodysuit I wore! I love how the brown looks against my deep skin tone! Notice that I’m only wearing 1 piece of brown clothing but it’s still the star of the show? Start there if you’re afraid of brown! If you like my look, please keep reading and I’ll tell you more about my outfit AND provide links to everything I have on.

Good American Good Icon Cutout Jeans – I’m a huge fan of Good American, they fit me like a dream! Khloe has done an amazing job with her jeans, they are true to size and the size range is incredibly inclusive. Now…the jeans are expensive, but DON’T worry, they are ALWAYS having a sale. The Good Icon Cutout Jeans I’m wearing sell for $165.00 but I got them during an after-Christmas sale for $45.00! Don’t be deterred by the normal Good American price tag, just wait for the pair of jeans you love to go on sale! These bone-colored jeans pair well with all shades of brown,

YSL Sunset Medium Chain Handbag – YSL is my go-to handbag designer! To me, it gives the luxury look of a designer handbag without being over-the-top expensive like some brands. YSL is a timeless brand that just looks so dang stylish. I love the Sunset line and I opted for the medium size. The shade is blanc vintage and it’s the perfect neutral for me; this is my go-to non-black bag!

OQQ Ribbed Bodysuit – OQQ is a favorite Amazon store of mine. It’s technically athletic wear but I love the bodysuits! They are lightly compressed so they give you that snatched look without being uncomfortable and they come in multiple shades of brown. OQQ has a wide range of pieces. I’ve purchased bodysuits, 2 piece-coordinating sets, and jumpsuits. You’ll definitely see more style boards featuring OQQ pieces.

Nike Air Max Dawn – I won’t go so far as to call myself a sneakerhead, but I LOVE my sneakers. These Air Max are no exception! They are the perfect neutral, super affordable, and comfy. Follow the link to view the other color options.

Express Gold Hoop Earrings – I love gold jewelry to pair with my brown outfits. Actually, I love gold jewelry with all of my outfits! Express is my go-to for staple jewelry pieces. They always have the cutest classic-type jewelry; of course, I reached for my Express hoops to complete my Wilmington, NC Foxy Brown look!

Thanks!
