Brown, brown and more brown!
Make it chocolate and then add caramel, cocoa, latte and a dollop of cream.
All delicious colours and good enough to eat.
Simple, chic they always look expensive, even when they’re not.
(My aim in life? Look expensive, chic effortless !)

All over the runways for winter,  neutrals but especially chocolate brown were the big street style trend at the latest fashion weeks in Milan and Paris . Got to love that.
Finally there is fashion for sophisticated women who want to look chic.
(As loyal FiFi followers know: these colours are all I have been wearing/posting here for years !) ( Meaning? Tried and tested. Know it works).

The great thing is that you can wear all these earthy brown tones together.
It makes dressing easy.
It’s called tone on tone dressing.
Nothing needs to match exactly:  just layer up different tones of brown, beige, caramel and camel.
Then add white shoes. They change everything !
The trick ?
Update ! It’s the FiFi philosophy 101 : stick to classic colours but update into new modern shapes.
And think about textures so something interesting is happening.

Another way to wear these camel and brown pieces?
Just insert any of these items into your wardrobe with blue denim, white or navy.
Make sure you have three colours on the body.
( two is too matchy match. Three is so tricky ; feel free to find the time to do it !)
Remember it’s also about styling up things differently and changing the proportions so it looks modern.
I’m talking wide pants with a big blazer. A midi skirt with a big sweater or with a short crop trench.

BTW: All these pieces are luxe to less. If something is expensive it’s because I believe it is the best example and to give you idea of what to look for. Oh,  and aren’t we all here at the end of the day to drool over beautiful clothes ?! Hell yeah.

I’ve chosen a few fabulous winter pieces – how could I resist – because it’s all arriving instore right now but you could wear a lot of these pieces right now like slouchy pants and a waistcoat with a white tee.

Styling tips :
Wear it head to toe, mixing all the tawny tones of browns and any neutrals.
Don’t be afraid of matching it , wearing it head to toe : all these neutral colors love each other.
You just put them on and out the door.
Throw tans and neutrals back with your favourite denim, navy and white. And black of course.
Go for modern updated shapes : that’s how you get the fashion edge.
Dark brown chocolate or white accessories like shoes and bag are where you are going to spend money:
Why?
Because they are the items that pack a punch with your brown wardrobe.
And you can wear a chic brown right into next season. And beyond.
You can’t go wrong.
I should know : my whole entire wardrobe is based on these chic colors !
