Did you indulge? Did you do the whole head to toe camel thing? Are you a tad over it? I think i just found your answer ....
A bit of colour blocking - enlivening the camel and the camel providing the perfect neutral - I might just wear the
two coats (I know!!) i bought last season after all xx

I just bought mine from Matches, I've been wanting a camel coat for the last few years but last year I put my pennies into redecorating, this winter I'm restocking!
ReplyDeleteOh how fab Tabitha - which one did you get? xx
ReplyDeleteI simply couldn't find a camel coat to love last winter. I'm not giving up, it's such a timeless piece. xo

It so is Ada - perenial x
ReplyDeleteI'd never be tired of camel coats! Love them so much. Got a classic one last year and, in a perfect world, would love to buy MaxMara coat one day. x
ReplyDeleteI'm like Ada: I haven't found my perfect camel coat (i.e. possibly without buttons or double breasted) yet, even if last year I tried so many of them at Max Mara...But the search continues and your idea of colour blocking is great.

They def do the best camel coats Little Rus - it is kind of the cornerstone of their brand x
ReplyDeleteNJAPD - It updates i feel - i wore so much all camel last season and it made me tire of it yet it is such a flattering neutral - renewed and perked my interest again! x
good idea, i have one, but i'm not tired of it. I still love it!

I'd hoped to see some really great camel pieces last fall, but they just never really turned up anywhere. I'll wear camel whether it's In or Out.
ReplyDeletelove the color combination!

It's a classic coat in a timeless shade.
ReplyDeleteYou'll have years of wear with this simple style.
Coats are investment pieces...
the winter wool and cashmere coat I purchased was pricey and it will be enjoying it's 3rd season when the temperature dips.
Mine is black because camel makes me look anemic!
I have mine from last year from Armani Collezioni (and I have a Burberry one as well, but that one is a bit older!). I actually took it out this morning because I was just freezing!
ReplyDeleteI like the idea with colour blocking! I tend to just go black in the winters... but I think I'll go for colour this year (loving burgundy!)
that is SUCH an amazing photo. love love love it!

Sally i think you are so right - i will have to get them out now! x
ReplyDeleteOoh camel and black Dior - like it David - really like it x
Paola i am fedup with black too i am def doing colour and i am liking burgundy, with teal, orange, toffee beiges, camel, bit of blue, brown, touch of hot pink - hey i am def doing colour!! x
Hostess it is definitely an investment and black is the one that drains me - i just up the makeup but camel is fab on me - best to buy to our strengths i think is the lesson x
Good for you Mariale and Deja x
Gosh! I have to have one! I didn't buy it last year and I WANT one!

Thankfully I had a camel coat that my vintage dealer "gave"/lent/let me steal {?} and I love it so much it may be making an appearance in my line in a much brighter color. I know--I wondered at the time about the whole camel thing being too overblown last year and what it would do to camel coats for the next few years--no one will want to wear theirs, although color blocking is the perfect solution!
