Brown leather bag with black boots/shoes?

[BobblyGussets]

Just a quick canvas of opinion please: would you tote a brown leather bag (it's in White Stuff now at £65) with black shoes? I want the bag, but I hardly ever wear brown, shoes or otherwise.

Of course! I dislike the 'matchy matchy' look - I think it is aging and very mother of the bride. My bag is always a different colour to my shoes

[Emo76]

not sure not sure. I agree to an extent with rassy re matchy, matchy especially with pastels but slightly depends on rest out outfit. probably works!

Hhmmm. I don't think I would. I like to have a brown bag with brown shoes, but think it would depend on the outfit, what colour trousers/jeans your wearing and what jacket, but generally I like a brown bag with brown shoes

Oooh ,that's me, ageing mother of the bride . Not quite: my DD is 9 yo, so I've a way to go.

Brown + brown. Black+black for me and no other way.

But then I don't mix gold and silver...
