On Trend Sophistication: How to Wear the Color Camel

When it comes to our wardrobe, there aren't many colors we would trade for our beloved black — but camel is quickly becoming one of them.

Similar to black, camel is a timeless, classic hue that is subtle enough not to overshadow the rest of our ensemble but also bold enough to stand on its own. Any staple piece we would wear in black — from a trench coat to a leather jacket to a suede mini skirt — we would undoubtedly wear in camel, thanks to its universal appeal and neutral tendencies.

Basically, make room in your closets because camel is the new black — and we have the most gorgeous camel-inspo to prove it.

Topped off with a trench coat

Office ready with wide-leg trousers
Carry camel over into your workday with sophisticated, wide-leg trousers that will leave you feel professional yet still refreshingly stylish.

Layered camel upon camel
There's no such thing as too much camel; pile on the camel layers in the form of tops, sweaters and capes for a classy, chic style that leaves plenty of room to be accented with fun accessories.

Casual with comfy jeans and a worn-in tee
Saturday errands never looked so chic; a camel leather jacket is the perfect way to top off your favorite pair of jeans and worn-in white tee for a day spend running around town.

Tucked into high-waist denim and belted
If jeans feel too casual for your ocassion, tuck a camel sweater into skinny jeans and belt it to easily and seamlessly elevate your entire look.

With a chunky sweater and black leather

Slide into a skirt
