As we know, Camouflage Print was all the rage last season.
It is also known that it is not going anywhere as the
sweltering heat of summer is phasing out, (in most parts of the country), and the
cooler temps are taking over.
Vanessia over at Style4Curves featured her incorporation of
the camo trend. Check out her blog here!
As some may know, I keep a mental shopping list of trendy
items that I want to find on a dime.
I was in one of my new favorite places to shop minding my
own business, when I spotted a pair of the store’s branded “modern-fit”
trousers!
...In none other than camo print.
Skeptical about the fit on my voluptuous bottom half, I
tried them on for kicks.
The fit was amazing!
The outfits I could construct with these pants instantly begin
swimming around in my head!
Needless to say,
I bought them!
I bought them!
And while playing around with them and some pieces I had at
home, I thought they went exceptionally well with my orange peplum top.
Hence, the look I went with for work today!
I would love to dawn a heel with these pants but I have to
play by the rules and wear flats.
My metallic peep-toes were close enough to
- soften up the camo
- play nice with the contrast between the pop + print
- and still stay true to my style….
I would have LOVED to wear this shirt in all its sleeveless
glory but that is also taboo on the job.
Thus, I covered it up with my denim jacket.
… And to give my
favorite satchel a break, I grabbed this white carry-all with silver hardware!
Taking note of all the things I considered to make this look
work, I think it deserves a salute.
