I just bought a black pea coat. Does it match to wear brown gloves with it? What are the rules?

Depends on the shade of brown. Generally, though, no.

Also: please post in the "Ask a quick question" thread as this is a quick question.

Brown gloves with a black jacket I think is A OK. But, this is assuming your other accesories and such still match. So, brown boots, belt and Black jacket, I think brown gloves are all that work.

Absolutely. I think it may take a bit of an eye to see what works and does not, but I do it and enjoy all colours of brown with black jackets all the time. If you want to be safe, then yes, black shoes with black jacket.

Personally, if I was wearing brown gloves, I'd want to be wearing brown shoes, but the "attitude" thing will mask a multitude of sins.
