Brown for the 50’s, 60’s, & 70’s: Paired with Pink
In the third installment of what to wear with brown, I decided to go to the opposite color spectrum than the first two posts. The first post was a dark color–navy (here) and the second was a bright color–red (here). So I decided that this color mix needed to be a light color. I really like all the pastels with brown, but I chose pink!

Jodie’s Outfit (Blouse):
So my necklace actually broke at the bottom of it. Since it’s so long, I decided to cross tie the ends and drape it around my neck.

Nancy’s Outfit with Brown (Vest):
I like draping this scarf over the neck of the vest instead of under the vest. I was trying to break up the puffiness of the vest.
