Wearing
brown and black…
Rules are for fools when it comes to men's fashion
 Alright, so I have a friend
who professes that the brown with black rule for fashion is
completely outdated. He said that its roots actually lie with royalty wearing
black and lower classes wearing brown, and never the two shall meet. So, I was
just wondering if it is okay to ditch the rule, as long as the
accessories are the same? Thanks! (Radford, VA)

Your pal needs far more than some fashion enlightening. I think you
should ditch the twit and tell him not to come back until he gets some class. Or
perhaps tell Mr. Biggety to limit his attire to an a-hole friendly shade
like brown, so we can see his true colors before he has a chance to profess
anything else!
What is this nonsense about lower classes wearing certain colors? Talk about
outdated-- his uppity viewpoint is positively barbaric and he should be ashamed
of himself to even think in such a narrow-minded, biased fashion and that’s not
limited to wardrobe either. This is further proof that rules are for fools
and one should be able to develop the knack to follow certain guideline to
create their own individual and polished look—it’s about choice, baby.
Sure, trying to palm off a lightweight wool brown jacket and lightweight wool
black slacks as a matched suit is a little cheesy, but wearing a brown croc belt
with black pants and a black sweater is positively divine. It’s not about
“matching” colors, but about complimenting textures and fabric weights.
Brown can be paired with black when the individual items are in harmony and
balance with each other and then each color plays off the other as an accent,
rather than as a coordinated set.
