Classic Wool Camel Coat for Fall

When curating a classic wardrobe, there are two shades of wool coats I keep in my closet: camel, and grey (worn here). I like the option of switching between the two depending on what outfit I wear underneath. For early fall, I find that the warm camel color goes better with the season. In this post, I wanted to share some simple outfit combinations you can recreate with the wool camel coat.

Great Wool Coat Options for Fall

Some of my favorite retailers for finding an affordable, but high-quality wool coat are J. Crew, and Mango. Luckily, they come out with similar versions each year that become consistent top-sellers. If you are on the hunt for a piece yourself, these are some I recommend.

Wearing the Wool Camel Coat to Work

In this outfit, I chose an easy monochrome look: camel coat, with beige dress pants and similarly-colored suede ankle booties. Matching becomes so effortless when you make camel the base color that the rest of your pieces coordinate around. (Also wearing my favorite dress pants from Aritzia’s Babaton line.

Outfit Details: Camel Wool Coat (S) | Cotton Crew Neck (S) | Plaid Skirt (similar) | OTK Boots | Quilted Bag

The wool camel coat is so easy to dress up or down. For example, with a pair of faux leather leggings and sneakers, or a plaid skirt and OTK boots.

• Faux Leather Leggings: Spanx | Athleta | Express | Old Navy
• Plaid Skirt: I actually thrifted this one off of thredUP and it is originally from Aritzia. However, here are some similar ones: Reformation | Club Monaco | J. Crew Factory | Banana Republic

• Over the Knee Boots: A classic shoe I own in black. I bought these from Steve Madden 3 years ago, and love them to death! (Linking SIMILAR) I wish they still made them, but in the meantime, here are some similar styles from a few other brands this season.

• Bag: Wearing the Pippa Bag which I reviewed HERE. I love that this style comes with a braided leather chain, for a dressier look, along with a regular leather strap for everyday wear.

While I didn’t capture it for this post, I have dressed my coat with leggings and sneakers before. It’s not the look I usually go for, but it works! I hope this post inspires the way you style yours for the fall season.
