Some questions about clothes

[Mirkir]

1. I hear frequently you shouldn't wear brown shoes with black belt and vice versa, can you wear dark brown flip flops with a black jacket (khaki shorts) ?

2. i had more but i forgot them, I'll come back later.

I think that would look absolutely fine I also think fashion rules are really silly.

I wear black shoes with brown pants all the time. No one's ever said anything to me about it (except my grandmother who I don't listen to regarding clothes).

I've also committed the grievous fashion sin of wearing socks with sandals. No one said anything to me about that, either.

Go crazy

I agree that fashion "rules" are silly.

Brown and black are actually perfectly fine to wear together. I guess it's about balance.

This guy appears to be wearing a black belt (or no belt?) with brown shoes:

That looks fine to me.

Isn't that ^^ a blue suit?

Ugh. I'm old fashioned. I could not bring myself to wear brown with black or blue with black. I always buy black shoes. Or red shoes. I never buy brown. I always think 'what would I wear them with' when my purses are all red or black or a combination of white/black etc. I just cannot carry a black purse if I wear brown shoes. It is all in how you were brought up, I imagine - whether parental influence, the era, or cultural.
