10 Stylish Essentials – No 2

The Chic Camel Coat

Fashion comes and goes together with this season’s ‘must haves’.  A camel coat has stylish endurance. Most women can wear camel, but if this is not the colour for you go with navy. Like camel, navy says style and the same approach to accessories works too.

Choose a style that flatters your body shape. The belted coat looks good on tall or slim women whereas the shorter coat (from Top Shop) is very flattering for those of us with more generous proportions. Wear with white jeans for a casual and contemporary look or with well cut trousers or jeans. Camel looks very chic with boots and especially pulled together with a statement handbag. Investing in a good quality camel coat is well worth it. If your budget doesn’t allow this check out stores such as Zara who usually have a camel coat (or two) in their store.

Camel loves pinks, reds and plums. Don’t be afraid to accessorize creatively. The metallic clutch below works brilliantly. A camel coat may be thought of as traditional, there is no need for it to be boring.

Try a scarf to create different style looks. A woman can never have enough scarves!

Camel looks classy and investing in a camel coat is money very well spent. Dress it up or down it is a timeless piece that you can always rely on.
