Fashion Classics : The Camel Coat

By Simonea

A fashion classic : the camel coat.
I've no idea if the camel coat is a current trend or not....it was in A/W13 but that's probably old news by now....but I've noticed one or two recently on Pinterest & that got me thinking about it as a fashion item....in the images I've included in this post, they are all worn slightly differently but all look so stylish.
And I guess that's what makes it a classic in my book....it's timeless, can be worn by anyone of any age, it can be dressed up or down, it simply looks very elegant. And pretty cool too.I think it's one of those items that every wardrobe should have.
I used to have a beautifully tailored men's jacket in camel which came from Brooks Brothers in NYC, I've a horrible feeling that I donated it to a charity shop. Big mistake!
