I'm So Glad I Have a Camel Blazer—3 Elegant Ways I'll Wear It Next Year

In my time as a fashion editor, I’ve learnt a few things about the assembly of a brilliant wardrobe. The most important? A solid collection of wardrobe basics. Naturally, every great wardrobe contains a fresh white tee and a great pair of jeans. Beyond that, I would argue that a camel blazer is just as important. A sudden spike in Google search data proves that interest in camel blazers is ramping up, and it’s obvious why.

A quick way to smarten up a casual outfit without making it appear stuffy, I’ve long called upon a camel blazer to neaten my looks and simultaneously give a cool edge. And as we enter into a new year, I’m looking for fresh ways to style my staples, starting with this trusty piece. To get the inspiration flowing, read on to discover all the ways I came up with for wearing a camel blazer this season.

Style Notes: The addition of a camel blazer to a simple jeans and roll-neck outfit will add the elevated edge you’ve been looking for. Style with the season’s favourite boot shape and incorporate some touches of brown to tap into our favourite winter colour trend.
