Even though we can wear camo during any time of the year – it seems like it is MOST popular in the fall. When it blends in (see what I did there?) to the changing of the seasons and adds extra oh-yeah to your look. But camo = Military. Soldiers. Tough. Rugged. Worried how to integrate this into your style? Are you super feminine or ultra conservative or seriously trendy? No matter what is in your closet, do not pass up on camo! First impression: it might seem intimidating to tackle the camouflage look if it’s not a natural wardrobe staple. However, you can easily add it into your style and into your look with some simple ideas. Wearing camo is one way to effortlessly capture that street style. And – You can do it.
Starting out with camo? Wear your normal (currently trending) distressed denim. Add a basic Hanes tee. Throw on classic mirrored sunnies and some camel colored sandals. Keep the rest of your palette neutral to balance the confidence of the camo. Love pairing camo with navy or basic white. Classics. V-neck tees and jeans. Think basic and neutral colors for the background to the camo you wear. Doesn’t matter if it’s a jacket or jeans – keep the rest simple.
Next question you may have – what about my bag? Don’t get your style off-balanced and nominated for a fashion emergency if you carry around a bag that brings distraction to the camo. Again – keep it simple. Here’s what may inspire you – use vintage. This vintage hat bag found at the Cleveland Flea is now used as a bag for everyday! How about that?
If you use a vintage bag – there is a slight downside. No pockets for cell phones. Go figure. Solution: Use all those chic little (makeup) bags you’ve accumulated over the years to contain your lipsticks – then another for your keys – then another for you important papers. Whatever you need to contain – those little bags tare finally coming in handy!
How do you wear camo? Or if you don’t wear it yet… how do you think you’d like to add it into your style?
I definitely don’t wear camo, but you make it looks so easy and possible. Maybe I’ll have to give it a try.
The glasses totally make that outfit though, I think it is perfect with the Top Gun glasses!!
I love this vintage bag and also uses all the make-up bags I have lying around haha! I don’t think I could pull of camo anymore but I used to wear a lot of it :p You pull it off though!
I love camo! It’s so fun and you can dress it up or down! Your bag is super cute too!!
You are rockin that camo lady!! You look great!! I am not sure I could pull it off!
That vintage bag is so cute!!! And I would’ve never considered wearing camo, but now I think I might!
That’s a pattern that I think I won’t be able to wear. Kudos to you! It looks good.
You look so cool and comfortable in that outfit. I don’t wear camo, but after seeing you, I think I want to try. Nice bag!
It has been ages since I’ve worn any camouflage, but I love the style. I also love this outfit! The handbag is pretty neat, too.
I am so in love with that bag! So fun! I grew up in a family of hunters so no stranger to camo. Yet, I cannot pull it off. lol
I love the gray came! It’s so versatile and still more subtle than classic green came. I love it!
Love love camo! I love the tips you gave on how to wear it and its something I definitely want to incorporate into my closet more. Thank you for the great tips! That vintage bag was also super cute!
This may be weird, but I’ve never seen a purse like that! I am just fascinated. The shape is so neat and it looks great with your camo.
I love your outfit! I’ve always wanted to pull off camo, but I’ve failed every time I’ve tried! I love the outfit you put together though! I’m definitely going to try and find something like this to wear!
How is it that you always look so crazy adorable in every outfit you wear?! I can’t say I have ever been a huge camo fan but somehow you pulled it off and made me want to go out and buy myself a matching one!
I’ve never worn camo! You make it look so chic and effortless. I may start out with a pair of camo leggings, since I’m a sucker for leggings.
That was a great outfit and I really LOVED that bag!
This camo trend is one of my favorites! I love that jacket and I like how you accessorized as well, that bag is a gem. I would have to agree, it does look better in the Fall. Thanks for the tips on how to wear camouflage!
I have always loved camo. That bag is amazing and a great way to use those little makeup bags.
I love love love how you styled this camo look! It’s truly the perfect transition trend for the Fall, and your jacket is perfect!
