Nothing Wrong with Black and Brown

Lately I've been obsessed with mixing different types of patterns and now, on top of that, I'm obsessed with mixing together brown and black. I remember one of the very first fashion rules I learned was never to mix those two colors together. My middle school self swore I would stick by it and never make such a horrible fashion faux paus. And now? I couldn't love it more. Take that, little Jen. Rules were made to be broken.

What are some typical fashion don'ts that you guys find yourselves embracing?
