Even though we've finally had a taste of summer, the brown colour trend is continuing its reign as one of the chicest colours of the season. Adding a rich-looking touch to your daily wares, deep brown tones have become a heavyweight player in so many capsule wardrobes this year, and that's set to continue in the warmer months too.
I get that you might have thought the colour was too dark to style throughout summer, but I'm here to prove you wrong. Wearing well with baby blue and metallic gold, the trending tone is far more versatile than you might have imagined. A new favourite amongst the Replica Handbags set, I've rounded up five elegant ensembles that further champion the colour brown.
Read on to discover the five colour trends that go with brown—as told by my favourite celebrities.
5 CELEBRITY OUTFITS THAT SHOWCASE THE BEST COLOURS TO WEAR WITH BROWN
1. ALEXA CHUNG: BROWN + BUTTER YELLOW
Style Notes: Balancing out the saccharine nature of the butter yellow shade, a dark brown pairing works to elevate the light tone and add dimension. Chung's brown corduroy blazer grounds her outfit for a fresh look that can be worn across seasons.
SHOP THE BROWN + PALE YELLOW PAIRING:
Smarten up your casual looks with ease.
Shop her bag whilst it's on sale.
Wear with butter yellow flats or style with kitten heels.
These are bound to sell out by summer.
2. SOFIA RICHIE GRAINGE: BROWN + BLACK
Style Notes: Contrary to popular belief, brown and black is an easy colour combination that looks good every time. Do it like Sofia Richie Grainge and opt for a chic brown double-denim look, and layer your outfit with a classic black top.
SHOP THE BROWN + BLACK PAIRING:
Trust me: a black T-shirt is just as versatile as a bright white one.
Shake up your denim collection with a pair of trending brown jeans.
This pretty summer dress is bound to sell out.
These also come in red and white.
3. HAILEY BIEBER: BROWN + GOLD
Style Notes: Adding a rich and opulent energy to a deep brown layer, a metallic gold accent makes this wearable shade evening-ready instantly. Layer a gold top underneath a brown dress or reach for your favourite gold jewels to complete your look instead.
This also comes in muted silver shade.
This pretty strapless dress is perfect for summer weddings.
Layer on your gold jewels or go sans accessories.
This also comes in six other colours.
4. BELLA HADID: BROWN + PINK
Style Notes: The pretty pink shade instantly lifts the energy of the rich brown colour for a wearable pairing that's a fool-proof option for any daytime event.
SHOP THE BROWN + PINK PAIRING:
This breezy linen dress is perfect for summer styling.
Shop the shoes that Bella Hadid is loving right now.
Style with strappy sandals or wear with a small heel.
This pretty bag is at the top of my wish list.
5. ZOE KRAVITZ: BROWN + SOFT BLUE
Style Notes: This chic and simple look has been living in my mind rent-free for quite some time. Whilst Zöe Kravitz debuted this combination a few seasons ago, the pretty pairing is going to be everywhere this summer—and I'm inspired by Kravitz's perfect styling.
SHOP THE BROWN + SOFT BLUE PAIRING:
The light linen fabric makes this ideal for wearing throughout the summer months.
Wear with a loose brown button-down or keep it simple with a white tee.
There are some great fitted blazers around at the moment.
This also comes in three other colours.
