As someone who wears black nearly every day, it takes something truly elevated to coax me out of my tried-and-true uniform. But that’s exactly what happened this morning when an image of Sofia Richie Grainge’s latest colour pairing landed on my desk. Built on an elegant foundation of the season’s favourite chocolate brown hue, it was the decadent shade she layered alongside that really stopped my scroll.

To add a note of richness to her refined ensemble, Sofia reached for a deep burgundy bag to heighten her look. The moody red tone echoed the depth of her dark brown dress, bringing texture and dimension to the earthy base without overwhelming it.

I’ve been on the hunt for fresh ways to style brown myself, so I’m thrilled this pairing is finally on my radar. It’s a far more interesting alternative to the black-and-white combinations I usually default to.
