The Tailback Tee

most people associate camel as the it color for this fall. As I'm living in the tropics, i cant really go with the camel outfit combination that are present in the runway shows (despite how much i love them!) The weather is just too hot (I was already sweating in this jacket when I took the photos). After some discussion with my friends a couple days ago, it's surprising that they find camel a color that's very formal, conservative, and mature. I don't think that true at all. I guess all sorts of colors can be young fresh, edgy, feminine, or whatever you're aiming for as long as you pair them with the right pieces. For today's outfit, I went out of my neutral and basic pieces to keep the camel jacket fresh looking fresh and not too formal. Added the floral shorts and heart-shaped glasses to make it even more fresh and spring-y instead of winter-y.




zara jacket, cotton ink navy laurie tee, gifted shorts, sunnies from a random online shop, topshop belt, aldo wedges, bottega venetta bag

jemina October 26, 2010 9:06 PM  

You look smashing, I would call this look, fun floral camel chic, or whatever LOL (that was a mouthful), most importantly, you look sensational, you prove that camel is not dull, boring, or only reserved for oldies, you go girl!!!

the blazer looks very perfect. that's one of my faved color :)

GILBERT/GANDA October 26, 2010 9:36 PM  

Hey C chelle!

yeah totally agree with you! every colour can be playful as long as we want it to be! like gray, a lot of people also said that its so formal, but when you match it with a shocking pink hosiery or a yellow hosiery, won't it be playful?

xx
bunch of loves!

collagevintage October 26, 2010 9:41 PM

Big Kiss lady.

You're definitely right, I don't think camel is too formal or something... The blazer is just stunning! ♥
And I wish I could switch the winter and wear only shorts and a tee all the time!
Do you feel sometimes like escaping the heat and going to some very cold country, or you're happy to have hot weather?

Audrey Allure October 26, 2010 9:54 PM  

Love the blazer, and I agree - I think it can look great when pairing with the right things :)

Those red heart glasses are AWESOME!! Totally make the outfit.

Sweet October 26, 2010 11:11 PM  

I think the camel color is not for mature people you are absolutely right when you made your point about pairing it with the right outfit...and edgy look!!!!

i specifically love the heart sunglasses and your floral shorts....and YES sometimes living in a tropical country like ours we need to weigh things about fashion...we can never enjoy some runway trends....

Love the outfit - I find camel hard to wear because I'm blonde and I think it washes me out, so I need to find something to pair it with to combat this! x

Laura Tenshi October 27, 2010 1:29 AM  

I actually agree with your friends, camel may be too mature for my tastes but you did an excellent job pairing your blazer with hot floral print shorts and that top. This way your look is mature yet playful and I like the contrast.

My Republic of Fashion October 27, 2010 1:34 AM

Liana October 27, 2010 3:18 AM  

love this outfit! it looks very sophisticated but fun at the same time. camel can be somewhat of a more sophisticated color, but when paired with fun or flirtier items it can be transformed to feel younger, like how you styled it!

Hey pretty girl! That jacket and its color are utterly so fine that I just don't buy that those people think it's conservative, too formal, and all that! And it will be a perfect jacket for Autumn like right now! (: I could never put a specific definition to a color, I think they are supposed to be fun and creative depending on how we are doing it!

Have a more than great one, darl! (:
