Alice the camel...

In Europe last year, I prepared myself for the long haul flight out of the bustling Heathrow in London with plenty of reading material: UK Marie Claire (sooo much better than the Aussie version), UK Vogue, UK Red, UK Grazia. Boy was it fun! Being a few seasons in front of our fashion back home in Aussieland, it was great to see what the UK girls were rocking out in the lead up to their winter.

One word: camel.

Camel from top to toe, but most importantly - the camel coat.

I had one of these when I was a teen that I picked up from an opshop - that I thought was grand but at the time it was a little unfashionable. I wish I had held on to it! I could have totally done camel vintage.

I know it's a long way from winter here in Victoria (although the weather Gods would have you thinking otherwise with the strange summer season that we've had!) - but I can't wait to don a camel coat this year!
