Depending on where you live, a coat can definitely qualify as a splurge item. A dress coat is something that you wear often and it is an integral part of first impression. As much as I love the bright coats this season, the camel coat is the way to go for the investment piece. It will go the farthest with shoes, handbags and other accessories and provide a classy backdrop for the outfit that lies beneath. And with so many work outfits now including pants, it is important that this piece, in fact, be a neutral backdrop.
With proper care, a camel coat is a piece that will remain in style for many seasons. I would strongly suggest that when purchasing a camel coat, go with the best quality that you can afford. Cashmere is not only the highest quality, it is also the most wearable because it is warm and yet breathable. There is no substitute for the look and the “hand” (the way it feels to touch). And as long as it is stored clean and kept free from moths, a cashmere camel coat will last for many years.
