This Is the Only Color That Looks Better With Burgundy Than Black—Period
Rich, earthy hues make for the best cozy (but chic) looks. While black is an easy go-to for combining with any color, the unexpectedness of brown with burgundy gives a more unique, luxurious spin. The two tones also evoke a warm vibe perfect for colder months.
While homey knits and luxe coats are perfect in these colorways, using burgundy as an accent color makes for an effortless outfit formula. Just ask Ashley Benson, who recently stepped out in Los Angeles wearing a chocolate-colored cardigan, mid-wash jeans, and a sleek burgundy handbag. She even matched her pointed-toe flats to her Celine bag for the ultimate daytime look.

Another (personal favorite) way to combine the colors is in a tonal look. With the option to stack additional brown or red hues to build out the 'fit. This gives the option to play around with adjacent hues to brown and burgundy or anything in between.
