Camel is one of my favourite colours, especially in winter. It’s rich, warm and gives your wardrobe a big dose of classic style that I adore.
The warmth of camel really pops against a bold monochrome palette. I always find myself going back to Fashion 101… i.e. wear it with neutrals! Think a camel coat over a white shirt, or cream knit sweater with cool black leather skinny pants or distressed denim jeans – the camel simply pulls it all together.
So it wouldn’t be a swiish fashion post without me declaring my love for leopard. What? You missed the memo? No worries – you can read more here, here, here and here. Leopard stilettos, clutch bags and scarves in gorgeous camel tones are a match made in heaven, adding a one-two punch of style and sass to your everyday look. I’m a little obsessed, I know. But it’s seriously good chic.
Have a bright statement piece you’re just not sure how to style? Layer it up with camel. This neutral shade looks fab paired with candy pinks, tomato reds and lilac.
