Before this week I owned exactly zero camouflage prints. Zero. About eight years ago I got a pair of camo pants from my local thrift store for free. They were going to throw them away because they had no button, so I offered to take off their hands rather than see them end up in the dumpster. They were in great shape except for the button, so I sewed on a replacement and proceeded to wear them until they fell apart. And that was it until I saw a friend and fellow blogger a couple of months rocking a vintage camo jacket and making it look ever so chic and feminine. You can read her post and view her pics here. I loved the look so much, it got me thinking about adding a little camo to my wardrobe again and I thought this cute little Irisie tee for $10.99 was a great and inexpensive way to start.

I know the typical thing to do when wearing camo is to pair it with neutral shades--either white, black, or blue jeans. That's what I did with my camo pants, may they rest in peace. Now? I prefer to rock the color palette a little harder. Rather than keeping my main pieces neutral and simply adding a colorful or printed accent piece like a purse or shoes, I decided to go with this burnt orange corduroy skirt. I love all those outfits that I posted up top, they're pretty brilliant examples of camo done well, especially with all that print mixing---it's fabulous! And I'll definitely be trying a few more outfit styles with this top, but for now I'm leaving the neutral zone behind :D
