Soft Camel

I've always had a weak spot for a soft light camel colour and it appears to be really in right now.

Black and Camel

My two favourite colours for my fall wardrobe.  I'm on the lookout for a new bag this fall as my old one is starting to look a bit worn.  Then I spotted these and now I'm trying to decide which I prefer and if I want to splurge or find something similar in a cheaper version.  I can be really rough on my purses as I use them every day for months on end, drag them everywhere with me and while I love purses I find it difficult to purchase one.  Once I find one that works for me I use it until it's falling apart.  I need a roomy purse as I lug a lot around with me but not one so big that I'll loose anything I put into it. 

I like the style of the top one, but it might be a bit too small for me.  However the draw string top on the bottom one may not work for me either.  I'll keep looking I guess.

Classic Ralph Lauren

It's a classic Ralph Lauren kind of day for me today as I wrap presents and prepare for the holidays.  One more week to go and I'm on holidays.  It's been a rough year so this holiday is all about relaxing, spending time with family and friends.  I want to savour every moment of it because we haven't had a proper Christmas for the last two years.  So this year, it's all about appreciating what we have and feeling the love.

Baby it's cold outside

Why did I ever come back...  It's that time of year and I'm trying to focus on finding my Christmas spirit since it's only one month away. 

So Santa - here are a couple of things from my list.

Time to Break Out the Winter Gear

Cozy Sweater

Doesn't this look so cozy and chic at the same time.  I so want to find something like this.  I'm already quite finished with the snow thing.

An Icon

I think I've mentioned that I have an obsession with the perfect camel cashmere winter coat.  It's a classic that I can't live without.  Here is the one I currently have by Max Mara, the "icon" coat.

I love this coat for a lot of reasons but mostly because it classes up anything.  If you need proof - see below - casual to work to dressy to evening - take your pic.  One coat for many different looks.

Wardrobe Updates - Camel Blazer

This is one blazer I have yet to find that really fits the look I want.  There are so many shades of camel out there so if you want a blazer, slacks, turtleneck to match you have to buy them from the same line.  I have a number of camel pieces but they can’t be worn together.

Wardrobe Updates: Camel, Cashmere Winter Coat - Part 2

Found it.  This coat was showcased in The Penthouse Home Collection.  So once more Ralph Lauren has come up with what I’m looking for.  No surprise.

I thought I'd seen it before so I've been digging through my older images and found it.  So I'll include The Penthouse Home collection which was one of my favourite design schemes as well.  I like this contemporary look.
