The new coat colour

Now when winter arrives the first thing people do is taking out their special warm clothes.   Feeling warm and comfortable is your top priority to survive the cold days, however this year you will have to forget the usual black coat. This season has a very special colour... We saw it on the entire catwalks for men and on all adverts of magazines... Camel.

What is Camel?

  “Camel is a colour that resembles the colour of the hair of a camel.
The first recorded use of camel as a colour name in English was in 1916
Camel is also the colour of a specific type of overcoat known as a polo coat or camel-hair coat “

 In fact camel is so over used that it became the new  “neutral” of this season. 

 Here are some examples of long camel coats.

Now I’ve got two advices to offer for creating swaggy looks with a camel coat:

•  Are you going to work? Or maybe an important meeting?   In that case tie your camel coat   and attach your belt tightly.  You should now have the silhouette of an hourglass but be careful, you must be comfortable so don’t hurt yourself trying to look thin.Underneath your coat I would suggest some dark colours.  A white shirt with a black tie should be the easiest way to look classy and masculine.  However, I am going to repeat it again, be creative and try every duo of light and dark colours that you can think of.

 Tips: This is a classy style so use some classy accessories: watch, thick spectacles frames, smart phones...

• Are you going out? Meeting some friends or going for a relax day? In that case you can leave your camel coat tied or open as you wish.I would go for any type of t-shirt underneath but more with bright colours such as grey or white.

Tips:  The camel uggs boots for man with  jogging pants would be perfect with that style.

Well, here are my advices on camel coat for this season.  I hope you will now create your camel coat look more easily and I can’t wait to hear from you .

Here is a list of my favourite camel coats for this season .
