The once forgotten and rejected color is now–in all shades and texture–the go-to for all fashion lovers and influencers. From Kendall Jenner’s badass brown Ferrari to Ariana Grande’s chocolate brown skin-tight dress, brown is having its moment–groundbreaking!
When discussing colors, brown is not typically considered an exciting or enticing color. Most people dislike brown because it is dull and ugly. However, fashion is rebranding this particular hue, associating it with warm, rustic, and chic characteristics. Hues of brunette and auburn are becoming staple colors, among dark neutrals, for the fall and winter collections. From high-fashion luxury brands such as Jacquemus and Chloé and popular retailers like Aritzia and Skims, shades of brown have been dominating the clothing racks with various textures such as suede, leather, knit, and fuzzy. With the entire craze on minimalism along with the sentiments of autumn, here are some must-have brown style staples to spice up your fall fashion ensemble.
Knit Loungewear
Kim Kardashian has changed the game with her brand SKIMS, offering comfortable and stylish shapewear and loungewear. For this season, her collection includes cozy knitwears in the form of bralettes, tank tops, wrap tops, pants, and more! Colors include camel and rose clay, which are practical colors for a lazy, cozy outfit.
Leather Jacket
In this house, we only support vegan leather. Artitzia’s latest FW collection carries a variety of chic leather outerwear and bottoms. Black leather jackets are a basic, must-have for the colder weather. But, rustic and earthy brown colors make a bolder statement. It’s an even bolder move to wear brown-on-brown head-to-toe.
Puff Jacket
If you are in need of some new, trendy outfits, Artzia has everyone’s back. Their signature PUFF jackets make a great investment piece that will probably last you a lifetime. And surprise, they have this beautiful rich mocha brown color!
Fuzzy Tote Bag
Your new teddy bear. Fuzzy bags are the cutest and snuggliest statement pieces you will need during the cold weather. Marc Jacob’s latest tote is a fun investment piece to throw in your wishlist.
90’s Shoulder Bag
Even in 2021, we still can’t let go of the 90’s. Everywhere you go, young girls flaunt their mini shoulder bags. For this fall season, you can carry around retro bags and still stay with the autumn theme. Beautiful shoulder bags such as this one from Asos, integrates beautiful patchwork and color-mixing.
Flare Pants
If we’re going back to the decades, a pair of flare pants are the way to go. Join the pants frenzy and pair your outfits with some auburn colors and fun patterns.
Uggs Slippers
Now onto my personal favorite: the Uggs slippers. I personally own three fuzzy Uggs slip-ons in different colors and models. The boots company saw a tremendous increase in sales for their slippers as it is easy to put on and super comfortable to wear. Style the ultimate lazy outfit with a hoodie, sweats and a pair of these house slippers.
Nails
A bonus because nails are technically part of our outfits! Manicure has usually been all about delicate designs and bright colors. This fall, ask your nail technician for elegant and minimal coating of earthy colors.
Until the end of the season, brown will be your go-to hue. You will soon realize that brown brings out understated elegance and chicness.
