Taking over catwalks and fast fashion alike, brown is this season’s hottest and most unlikely color. Fall’s typically earth tone-centric palette pairs well with shades of camel, hazelnut, sepia, and mahogany alike; not to mention contrasted richly against the creams and jewel tones of the bunch.
Thanks to Rent the Runway, I was able to snag this killer patchwork midi skirt by Elk featuring the perfect color way to style alongside some seasonal neutrals.
I’m obsessed with this layered look, perfect for the fall temperatures that struck New York City at a neck-breaking speed. But as fashion prophet, Iris Apfel, would say, ‘more is more and less is a bore’.
To anchor this look, I used this season’s highly acclaimed neutral featuring these Zara tortoiseshell-heel booties and cedar turtleneck. To honor the fabulous hues within the skirt, I doubled down with an ivory quilted vest and my favorite transitional duster from H&M.
Softer than our go-to blacks and cozier than our wardrobe’s selection of charcoals and whites; brown is the perfect outfit foundation we’ve all shirked for far too long. So take some notes from your daily cup of joe and layer up your looks with this hue underdog.
