SS06 Color: Brown

What color to match the nuetral palette of SS06 then brown right?

It is perfect for the safari look shown on the Zac Posen (left) and Michael Kors (right) runway.

And just the thing to look effortlessly chic in as seen here from the Zara catalog. The brown here provides such a nice contrast with her complexion.

It is just such a great, nuetral, soft and sophisticated color to wear. Not too girly or too hard core. Above, from Burberry Prorsum (left) and Marni (right). Here are a few of our favourite browns:

Polka dot cami from Ted Baker and silk brown top from Twelfth St by Cynthia Vincent. I especially love the top from Twelfth St, perfect for a night out!

Then there are the gorgeous dresses from top shop (left) and Rebecca Taylor (right).

And last but most definitely not least-these funky brown platforms from YSL.

I've been checking out your blog for a while. I love it! I am really impressed by your good taste (except LeSport Sac bags). They're sooo American blah.

expect to read me more often.
Congrats!

I completely agree. Brown can work so well. I tend to enjoy colors that make a bolder statement, but you can't always be dressed in an array of color. I love brown, and am definetely feeling the earth tone vibe this spring...
SUBTLE IS TRES CHIC!

that's so weird! my bffs mum is the managing ed at UK Vogue and last summer she said to me 'Black will be in for winter and brown for summer". guess she was right on both counts.

Brown and black are the two staple colors of my closet! I find it odd (but refreshing) that brown is so "in" this spring because it is usually strongly associated with fall. You've posted a great selection, Barneys Girl!
