Hi there! Fall fashion brings good news for all of us neutral lovers – brown is still in style! If you’ve been here before, you know I think you should wear what makes you feel happy and confident, no matter the trends. It does make it a little easier to find options when what you love happens to be on trend too!
How To Wear Chocolate Brown, My Favorite Neutral
Okay, there are so many different ways to wear this gorgeous neutral. Whether you choose to stock your closet full of brown pieces that you can wear together or separately, or just choose one item you love, I think you’ll find you turn to these items a lot. I’ve found that every brown piece of clothing feels classic to me. Every year when the weather gets cooler and I start to change out my clothes, I’m still so excited to wear the brown pieces I already own. They’re just so easy to style, and I always feel confident in them! Okay, let’s look at different ways to style brown.
Timeless Brown Fall Outfits
Chocolate Brown Wool Sweater
My chocolate brown wool sweater is one you’ll want to wear in early fall by itself, but it’s the perfect weight to layer under jackets. I love to wear it as a base with jeans, work trousers, or a skirt!

Brown Top and Jeans: The Every Day Outfit
This is such an easy fall outfit to put together – a brown cashmere sweater, your favorite pair of jeans, and ballet flats. You can wear this anywhere. In the photos below, I wore this for a morning coffee run with my family, and it was super comfortable and practical to be able to move baby around!
I know ballet flats are on trend right now, but they’re a wardrobe staple that will never go out of style. I linked a pair that I think are the most similar to mine. I wear these jeans all the time! If you’re between sizes up, size up. Otherwise, they run true to size.

Brown Skirt Outfit
Brown skirts are back and popular once again! They come in all different lengths and cuts, and they are a good option for fall and winter because you can wear them with any type of shoe. So, wear them now with your ballet flats, loafers, sneakers, or booties – and then when it gets colder, style them with knee high or over the knee boots. My exact skirt is super old, but I recently noticed this beautiful brown slip skirt when I was shopping in store.
My white long sleeve shirt is exact. Be sure to size down one size in this shirt! It’s a bit oversized and long, which makes it perfect to tuck in a skirt, or wear untucked with jeans or leggings! For the rest of my outfit, I’ve recreated this look with similar pieces or pieces I think create the same vibe.
Brown Monochrome Outfit
Monochrome never fails! A favorite look from fall in London. I also wear this outfit here at home for dinner out with friends. I love all monochrome looks, but brown is just the perfect fall color! My jeans are a relaxed fit, and they’re really comfortable. While I dressed them up here, they’re just as easy to wear with sneakers or flat boots for casual outings. I purchased the short length.
There are some gorgeous brown denim options right now. I wanted to share a few others I love in case the relaxed jeans aren’t your vibe.
Brown Blouses With A Pattern To Wear To Work Or For Fun
These blouses all have chocolate brown in them. They’re each a nice option to wear to work with work pants or with jeans on the weekend! I love the first one and think it’s a piece you can have in your closet forever.
Brown Blazer Outfit
Brown blazers are a closet staple. If you prefer to wear a brown top instead of brown pants, then a brown blazer is a great option. I always turn to blazers to complete outfits, especially in the fall or spring. There are so many different styles and materials when it comes to blazers, so I’ve linked several below that I would wear with a simple layering top this fall! Depending on where you live, you may still be able to wear a linen blazer through a lot of fall too. That’s definitely the case here in DC most years. So, below is one way I wear mine (shop similar here)! I also love to wear it with a dress or skirt, and you can do the same with most of the blazers below!
Simple Layering Top And Brown Jeans
Brown also looks nice with lighter neutrals like these! Don’t be afraid of mixing and matching different tones of brown and beige. I really lean towards neutrals because they’re what look the best on my skin tone. If you prefer to wear brown jeans with a fun color, I love this cardigan.
Printed Brown Dress For A Special Event
One of the best things about fall is you can still wear a lot of dresses without needing tights! Brown dresses are on-trend and pair perfectly with neutral boots, ballet flats, and loafers. I really loved the earth tones in this dress along with the soft blue. It’s the perfect piece to add to your fall wardrobe if you don’t already have a go-to dress for special occasions – or even just brunch! Don’t pack this one away when it’s winter, either. You can wear this with over the knee or knee high brown boots.
Brown Loungewear Outfit For Travel Or Cozy Days At Home
Matching sets are such a dream! You can mix and match them with other pieces in your closet, especially when they’re neutrals. While these pieces are loungewear, they’re the most elevated loungewear I think I’ve ever seen. They’re also the softest pieces of loungewear I’ve ever felt! This photo is from my phone, so it’s not as high quality as some others, but I loved this set. I needed one size up in the pants! While this exact top is showing as sold out right now, I’m linking below one of the other tops in the exact color. One of the great things about Varley is they make so many pieces that you can match – or mix and match.
Brown Accessories
Brown accessories are also an easy way to work brown into your outfits if you don’t want to wear brown clothes!
The Brown Sweater Blazer Outfit And Chocolate Brown Loafers You Can Wear Anywhere
We all need outfits we feel good in and we can wear pretty much anywhere. That’s this look! You can wear this sweater blazer open or buttoned. I love how this cut of a sweater blazer looks so tailored when it’s buttoned. Click here to see similar options on me. This shade of brown will work with a lot of skin tones too! My chocolate brown loafers are stunning. They will instantly elevate your outfit, whether you’re wearing a tailored sweater blazer or a simple dress. I’m so excited to wear them very soon!
