Brown has always been one of my favorite colors to wear, especially in the cooler months. When I’m refreshing my wardrobe for fall and winter, hues like terracotta, walnut, caramel, and chocolate are some of the first to catch my attention. I’ve traditionally played it safe with brown by paring it back to neutrals for an understated look, but this year, I can’t get enough of brown and teal outfits.
Brown and Teal Outfit
For my teal and brown look above, I styled a Ulla Johnson blouse with straight leg jeans and brown accessories to tie the look together. I found my top at Nordstrom Rack, which has been a go-to destination of mine for getting last season’s favorites at a discount for as long as I can remember.
The jeans are a splurge, but I’m telling you, but if you’re nervous about the straight leg jean trend and want a pair will flatter your figure, these are worth it. Their caramel color is trending for fall 2022 and they dress up and down with ease. David told me the jeans reminded him of Monica from friends—I gladly took that as a compliment!
Shop Teal and Brown Pieces
Worn together, brown and teal are a color combo that’s eye catching and perfectly seasonal. See below for my picks for the best pieces in this palette to wear now and into the cooler months ahead.
This cardigan coat is one of my most-worn fall pieces every year, and this season they brought it back in a beautiful walnut. Perfect for traveling, errands, and working from home, this is a versatile fall piece I promise you will not regret. Size down!

Silk Scarf
One of the best ways to start sprinkling in color is by way of accessories that you can wear year-round. For fall, a teal silk scarf adds a pop against brown separates. Wear it in your hair, on your bag, or around your neck like I did here. I also love this similar option under $15 if you’re not quite ready to go all in on teal.

Wool Blazer
A chocolate wool blazer is the perfect seasonal piece to wear with fall and winter holiday styles, to work, or simply with a tee and jeans. Keep your eye on J.Crew for a sale as they often mark new arrivals down as much as 40% early in the season!
