This Colour Combination Makes Every Outfit Look Polished

There’s something about brown that really has a chokehold on the fashion zeitgeist right now. From Pantone dubbing Mocha Mousse the colour of 2025 and cinnamon makeup trending on TikTok, to the uptick in suede staples and brown trainers, I’m a sucker for the tonal trend and, well, you’re here too, so it feels like we’re in it together.
For high impact, opt for deep chocolate and caramel tones, especially in leather, suede and faux fur, teamed with high-shine gold accessories.
The thing is, aside from being very ‘in’ right now, unlike a handful of other new season trends, brown never goes out of style, especially when paired with gold. In fact, it’s a go-to for timelessly chic, expensive looking outfits. Scroll through to see how to style the stylish duo for spring and beyond…
Belt buckles, bracelets, rings, earrings – you name it, any small hardware details help break up this otherwise monotone moment and transform it into a ‘look’.
