And just like that, everything looks better in brown. It doesn’t matter the shade, it appears to work remarkably well with every color palette. I’ll mix it with beige and tan for a chic tonal neutral story, or use it to add a sophisticated note to black and white. Shoes, bags and accessories are the easiest places to dive in first. I’ve started with the wear-with-everything Gucci 1955 Horsebit bag. Shoes are next on my radar.
