Brown

This deep and rich earthy tone falls under the category of warm shades. Since it is the color of earth, soil, wood, etc., and can be found extensively in nature, it is known as an earthy shade. Originating from an Old English word brun, Brown means any dusky or dark color.

This rich and wholesome shade renders a sober, warm and a no-nonsense look, and is less intimidating than the overpowering black. Representing wholesomeness and earthiness, Brown also reflects steadfastness, simplicity, dependability and health. People use the color Brown to convey a feeling of warmth and honesty. It is one of the most favourite Autumn/Winter shades.

Browns and greens are often paired together as both are earth tones and they complement each other perfectly. Deep chocolate brown is often used to replace black as it has warm undertone. For an exotic and exquisite look, pair rich brown with resplendent mustard or golden, rich rusty orange, pale yellow, deep purple, maroon and deep red, deep yet vibrant green, etc. Rich brown when paired with black also creates a stunning look.

Since brown flatters most skin tones, you don't need to worry much when picking a brown outfit. Copper finish and antique gold finish jewellery looks best with brown outfits.
