Some are head to toe brown. Some are half brown, half beige.

What a boring trend indeed!

I love it, all you springs and summers can pipe down 😊 it is after all the season of mists.

It’s better than head to toe black.

Hush your mouth! Nothing is better than head to toe black 😁😁😁

I am fully embracing the brown trend! Black drains me and I don’t suit burgundy. I look better in navy but I can go with brown.

I have a lovely pair of brown cords that I’m wearing to death with a little cream jumper. In the summer I had a bandeau brown top that I wore with wide legged cream trousers and a halter neck one. All made a nice change from black. Oh and a lovely strappy, silk brown dress..and a brown cord mini skirt. Maybe too much brown!!

I even bought brown tights which actually looked really nice with a cream jumper dress and brown boots..

Never let it be said that I’m a slave to fashion…!

I went out yesterday in a long brown coat, brown boots and a brown polo jumper. My son told me I looked like a big poo 😂
I don't care, I'm loving the brown / camel trend.

God I remember this from the first time round-maybe 1999? I looked like a KitKat. Not doing it again

😂

DramaAlpaca · 25/11/2025 20:09

I just can't wear brown or beige, it doesn't suit me and I don't like those colours anyway. I've bought a pair of brown boots recently and I have a brown suede jacket, but both have a slight chestnutty red tone to them, which I do like.

Today I'm wearing a bright red jumper, lovely and bright.

SwirlyShirly · 25/11/2025 20:11

I have been a vision in head to toe black today 🙈 I’m not keen on neutrals browns and beiges at all.

coxesorangepippin · 25/11/2025 20:17

Depressing isn't it.

Where's the colour

Celiathebanshee · 25/11/2025 20:21

I look lovely in brown, but like the walking dead in black or white. I’m very happy this season

Love chocolate brown colour, hate navy

cannotmakedecisions · 25/11/2025 20:28

Brown is ok but it doesn’t really suit me. I have a quite irrational hatred of beige! I will never I understand why people would choose beige (and not just in clothes, home decor etc too) when there are so many other options out there. I’ve got a couple of friends who regularly wear all beige, they always have done, and I have always inwardly judged them for it. I know that this is absolutely a me problem, but that’s how much I dislike the colour.

Delatron · 25/11/2025 20:30

I love camel? Is that considered beige? I have blonde hair and it suits me!

istolethetalisker · 25/11/2025 20:30

I love black and was really sad it's out except I've just remembered a perfect dark brown trench coat I used to have. Alas, it had to go when I started eating like a healthy adult and went up two dress sizes. Now off to see if I can find something like it.

cooksbrandedclock · 25/11/2025 20:33

PinkFootstool · 25/11/2025 13:57

Agreed. I have loathed this brown trend since it appeared - especially when paired with skin tone leggings so you look like you're naked from the waist down.

Could not agree more. Awful look.

ThePoshUns · 25/11/2025 20:35

I’m not a fan of brown at all. I do like the burgundy look though which also seems quite prevalent

I like camel too but it’s a little brighter on me than beige.

Actually don’t mind in beige in moderation, not just with brown and not everywhere.

Ghhhn · 25/11/2025 20:38

Can’t pull off true brown or beige - soft summer. Not keen on synthetic anything in these colours. I do have an oatmeal jumper that I love with jeans. Also a new cheap sweater dress somewhere between brown and oatmeal. It is surprisingly wearable.

Doyouthinktheyknow · 25/11/2025 20:38

I had a brown nylon bridesmaid dress in the late 70’s🤣🤣
I was only a kid, looked really cute but wtf!!

I really don’t do brown, not my colour at all. Suits some people though.

I dress like a 5 year old, love colour, the brighter the better so I have no place in S&B and won’t criticize anyone else’s choices!

Blogswife · 25/11/2025 20:40

It’s a fab trend. My favourite colours are shades of brown & cream . Love it !

Hoppinggreen · 25/11/2025 21:25

I love Chocolate brown and it suits me.
Today I wore a brown cashmere jumper, smart black trousers and boots and a brown, black and cream tweed coat - I felt I looked nice
I have also just bought a brown velvet dress to wear over xmas
Not a huge fan of beige though as it washes me out

Happyhousehappyheart · 25/11/2025 21:31

I hate these colours, nobody suits them. Depressing

I look much better in brown than black

Judystilldreamsofhorses · 25/11/2025 21:50

I really suit and like wearing brown - dark brunette hair and green eyes. Black next to my face no longer works on my skin now I’m older. I have a couple of brown things from last winter (a cardi from Free People and a jumper from &OS) so it must have been around then? I don’t suit camel at all though.

brownbeigeblah · 25/11/2025 21:50

So according to this thread everyone likes this style? This is what I saw a lot of today, including loads of sad beige children.
