As a suggestion for color inspiration looking at H shawls can provide some basic & unusual
color combos to work into your wardrobe.
I don't think you need to be scared, just give your eye an opportunity to adjust to this color.
Perhaps start playing around in your own closet & give it a go, JMO
This color works well with the colors you mention & what's nice it can be worn all year long too.
I so appreciate this feedback - I think I just need to adjust to it. I know it could look sooo cute with a camel colored coat, dark denim and a white tee.
I will add - several years ago he got me a chocolate brown birkin and at the time, I was like ummm this is weird Im not into dark brown but now that bag is so hot and I am so glad I have it!!

This guy for the win!!
This shade is beautiful… l find a pop of colour in bags matches very well with plain clothing, l am also quite casual in my dressing. A pop of red when complements your complexion well can make one look brighter and more alive as well. Black will definitely be a match but l think other warm colours like brown and cream will also go well with this
Your husband has a good sense of colour. Sanguine is an in-between colour in many ways. Between bold 'pop' and neutral, between pink and red, between brown and orange, between muted and bright. It really works all year round. So long as you don't have extreme cool contrast-heavy colouring/wardrobe, it's a very good all-round colour for most people, especially those not into bright colours.
Wear as a 'pop' with black, white, cream and any dark greens, ebony, dark chocolate, or navy/midnight blues and olives.
Wear tonally the mid-browns, light browns, camel, taupes, soft reds, earth.
Wear bright with royal blue, red, white, tan(s).
You make me revisit the regret of turning down a Sanguine alligator bag 10 years ago.
Your DH is generous and has great taste
💯 with @papertiger re colors and warm versus cool shades. Re wearing lighter tones, you cannot do better than to go with the advice of @Dreaming of H
. I find it helpful to take a selfie of the bag in black and white, which will help you figure out light and dark tonality. The mushroom selection pic provided by @Veritybelle is an example of this range of color and tone provided by nature. Depending on your skin tone — I’m a medium Asian olive — I prefer to go lighter or darker neutrals with RTW, with a pop contrast in shade/tone and color for a bag.

Hello tPFers!
Recently got a P18 in Biscuit with GHW.
It wasn’t my first choice colour (wanted Gold with GHW). But the Biscuit has grown on me over the last 48 hours. However, I’m stuck on a twilly.
What would you all recommend colour wise?
I don’t like blue - I don’t own any clothing in blue, not even blue denim aside from one pair.
I’m usually black and neutral colours.
I have put this twilly on but I think there is not enough contrast? Too much biscuit colour I think?
Appreciate your suggestions!

I think it looks really pretty with your bag! i usually wear twillys that have the color of my bag in them.
If you are able to go to your H store, the SA's pick out really good options, JMO
I agree, the combination you have works really well!
I would go with something in a very light cream shade like Nata, or Craie. I would personally pick pastel blues, but I know you're not a fan, so skip that.
Thank you! I think it works but maybe not the best.
I too usually have tonal twillys on my bags but usually not quite so blocked in colour! Perhaps this will do for now before I find something else!
Yep! On my way on Sunday! I’m actually close to my home store and another flagship boutique. I’m just lazy 😂
