#aa9a79 - Exploring Khaki color

This warm, muted tan carries a soft, antique-gold warmth balanced by subtle olive and grey undertones. It reads as a sandy taupe—earthy and vintage—evoking sunbaked clay, driftwood, and linen. The tone feels cozy and grounded without being heavy, ideal for natural, rustic, or heritage palettes. It pairs beautifully with deep forest greens, navy, cream, and rich walnut woods, lending interiors or garments a quietly sophisticated, autumnal character.
