I find the combination of these two colors a little controversial. Some people like it, some find it completely unacceptable. Many years ago, I didn’t think it was a good combination either, but now I believe it’s all about how you wear it and accessorize it.

Black and dark brown don’t have much contrast, and may look boring in an outfit if you don’t consider adding the third accent color. Blue, orange or yellow accessories will brighten the outfit making it more interesting and well put together.

The combination of black and light brown colors (like in the picture below) have a little more contrast, so you can get away with just wearing the two colors. I could’ve added more gold or brown accessories, but have decided to go with a more casual and simple look.

 Getting ready for my next post with the jewelry I made yesterday for the first time! Come back to see it…:-)
