COLOR CRUSH: chocolate brown
from milk to dark, chocolate in all forms
I know that this isn’t an earth-shattering revelation to say that I like brown, but I truly cannot get enough of it lately. The only reason that I’m grateful for these “trends” that seem to come and go at the flash of light these days is that it makes things I’ve loved for a long time more ubiquitous- not in the way that you see them everywhere, but in the way that these things are easier to get your hands on when you’re looking for something specific. These chocolatey shades of brown look good with everything- keep your outfit or room neutral, and mix it with chrome and silver or brass (although I’m partial to a deep, warm brown mixed with a bright and shiny silver or chrome in either scenario). Here is a smattering of things that fall into this range of milky light chocolate to a deep rich dark chocolate and that I’m crushing on lately.
Vintage Chanel Wicker Bag (on the top of my wishlist)
Oversized Gwyneth Coat (practicing willpower here with this one!)
Suede Mini Weekender (I have this in the large size and it’s a great travel bag!)
Belles Rives Lacquer Tray (I have this on my coffee table and it’s fabulous)
Leather Ballet Flat (I have these in black and they are SO comfortable)
Are you reading my mind? I’ve been on the hunt for the perfect chocolate brown sofa.
