Fashion question - black with brown?

[maryrose 2]

Hi ladies,

This is my problem. I had mostly black and brown clothes. Have had to replace most and have problems with matching things.

I bought these new brown high boots to wear with a brown skirt, but they really actually look better with the black slim skirt for a job interview.

Would you wear brown boots with a black skirt?

Yes it is perfectly acceptable to wear black with brown these days...I see people doing it all the time!

Thanks you kkarryall!

Sorry I took so long to respond. I have been having computer issues.

I did well on the interview and was offered the position, not really the hours I wanted, but it's OK for now.

BTW, I made a mistake on my resume. Had a typo in my phone number!

Jeeze...just a warning to anyone reading this. Be sure to check that resume for errors. I felt really dumb for not catching this as I am a medical transcriptionist.

Black and brown are neutral colors, they are fine to go together :confused:

Sorry you made the phone typo and glad you got the job. I had to chuckle because I purposely paired a brown shirt with black jeans after reading your thread!!! I like the combo. And I envy your ability to wear those kind of boots. My legs are too short and thick, sniff sniff!!!

Lol, I'm the odd one out but i probably would be unsure, just like you.

Never say never though, you never know how something looks till you try it, and there's no hard and fast rules. Brown boots with brown skirt could look weird too depending on the tones.
