It’s time for Ask Alison, my regular feature where I provide virtual styling solutions for your fashion questions. This week’s question comes from Stacy.
Hi Alison, I am borrowing a gown for a Mardi Gras Ball. It is a classic chocolate brown sheath. I would love to update it a bit with jewelry, but still be classic. Could you give me a few ideas? – Stacy
Lucky you, Stacy! What a fun event and gorgeous gown. Chocolate brown always looks so rich and elegant. There are many accessorizing options for this gown. Here are three different ways that I came up with to accessorize it without overpowering it.
Black + Brown – I have a real thing for this combo this year. It looks fresh and unexpected.
Classic – You can’t go wrong with a classic crystal combo.
Modern – The turquoise in the earrings and bright gold necklace perfectly compliment chocolate brown.
And the winner is…
