A lot of people are anti-black/brown combos. However, I think the combination can totally work, and is a nice alternative to all black while keeping a certain "chicness" to the outfit.

I love your Koi fish necklace! It's very original!
I've never really mixed black and brown, but I love this outfit.
I'll try the khaki and black on the calendar and see if I like it on me.
I wish I could be this covered up, its going to be 99 degrees outside today and there is no way I can layer fabulously as you did.
This is a hot look. I love the layering. Great job, and for less than $50! Impressive!
love the scarf and shoes!
That koi necklace is fab! So unusual. And reminds me that my mom has a koi necklace I've been meaning to steal ...
Agreed on the necklace! I love the black and brown combo, but am hesitant to try it. It was a big step for me back in winter to do cognac and black (which I'm addicted to now)Perhaps the next step is black and brown?
Yeah for the black & brown. I'm with ya Kimberly, I think it works!
i really love this pencil skirt! and the fishy is too awesome. i wouldn't do black and brown myself because i don't own a speck of brown, but this looks very classy, and great on you!
I've done black and khaki safely, and I agree that the way you've coordinated this outfit, the black and brown works. I love those shoes!
cute scarf and shoes!...the Koi necklace is so fun
And BAM! Another great outfit by Kimberly! I love the figure flattery & the monochromatic color scheme. Those are also some fierce accessories, my dear! XOXO, MissAmy
Kimberly:
I took a moment to look at your "wists" today. I noticed that you have the novel "Bright Lights, Big Ass" on your list. I finished the book about two weeks ago. It honestly was the funniest book I have read in a long time. Laugh out Loud, funny!
I love black and brown together - and this looks very chic as well! Nice combo!
$3 for a Gucci scarf!??! No fair!!
Looking good lady - very Chic!!
You look very sleek in this! Love it!
