THE CAMEL COAT
Ok so I absolutely love a good camel coat and fortunately there are a lot around in the stores at the moment ( I recommend having a look in country road & forever new). You can wear a camel coat with just about anything and dress it up or down.
Now if your spring or autumn you need to look for the warm camel, caramel and tan coloured coats & Autumn's you can even were a rust colour, there are also a lot of beautiful peachy camels around that spring and autumn can wear also. Wear your coat with cream, your red, warm purple and any other spring or autumn accent colour on your colour swatch.
Winters and Summers instead of a warm caramel camel colour look for cool coloured stoney beige coats to go with the cool colourings or dark cool brown, winters wear with black and white stripes or any pure colour on your swatch. Summers wear with lilac, white, pale blue or any other pastel on your swatch. Summers you will look fab in pale grey coats as well, and of course lucky old winters look stunning in both black and white.
A last tip, a coat is not something to skimp on get one good quality that's a great fit in one of these neutral colours and it will last for ages in your wardrobe.
THE LONG SKIRT
I love this look for winter with a belt and a jacket, I especially like the striped skirts. Try and look for a thicker fabric as it's more flattering. Springs think beige, cream, & red, Autumns there's a great green skirt in sportsgirl at the moment, summers think light to mid grey & winters charcoal or the beloved black and white stripe.
A LITTLE BIT OF LEOPARD
This look can either look brilliant or go horribly wrong if it's worn on mass or if it's a cheap print, so look for leopard items that don't look cheap and nasty & just wear a little bit ie scarf or shoes or cardigan. Springs look for warm chocolate browns, caramels and beiges in your leopard print. Autumn look for warm browns and even rusty brown ( there is a great rust brown leopard skarf in Deese Avalon at the moment.)
Summers look for cool beiges, dark browns and greys in your leopard print and winters dark browns, blacks and cool beiges.

Hey Em, I just love comments so I am figuring you do too! I am so thrilled to have you as my personal fashion advisor via colourpretty! I spotted a long camel skirt in a shop window this morning and now I am thinking I should dash back and grab it! Tell me what should I be wearing in jeans now that I am free agent - so to speak! Love you Emily. So happy to see you doing this. X
ReplyDeleteHello Spring Beauty! That skirt sounds gorgeous, if you get it send me a photo of you in it for the blog. Yay! Your a free agent and get to wear as much denim as you please. I went to the sass & bide sale after I had Hope and went nuts on denim. Sass & bide are definitely my all time fave jeans & they come in petite sizes so perfect for YOU! Also mink pink have some cute jeans. Can't wait to have a coffee in our denim :)
