Long ago, someone decided certain style combinations were "forbidden." One of those was navy and black. Obviously, I'm undeterred by this "rule" as I pair the two together quite a bit. There's another "taboo" combo I do as well: brown and black.
Black jeans? Sure, I'll sport my brown boots with them! Chocolate brown gloves? You bet I'll wear my black goose down vest with 'em!
A couple of interesting tidbits... Take note of my scarf. It incorporates elements of brown and black. Additionally, I've added a few pieces that are tan (not brown--but within the same color palette). I think these items truly help to tie the chocolate and black pieces nicely.
