Why Chocolate Accessories Are the Shade of the Season

Chocolate brown is emerging as one of the most sophisticated accessory shades of 2025. Editors are calling it the new black, thanks to its ability to flatter every wardrobe. Unlike black, which can sometimes feel severe, chocolate offers warmth, richness and quiet luxury. If you are wondering how to incorporate chocolate accessories into your wardrobe this season, the good news is that this versatile shade works across every category from handbags and belts to jewellery and hair clips.
