Camouflage Comes Back to Stay!


I did not believe it when I first encountered some camouflage pieces in stores.  I had thought that the trend went out about three years ago.  But it is back, apparently.  That's not a bad thing.  I like camo.  It's youthful, casual, goes great with any color, and can be worn summer or winter.   In fact, I read somewhere that the camo trend will be big come this fall, too.

There were two items that drew me back into this camo trend.  One was a super cute tank I saw at Alice B. in Buffalo Grove, Illinois for a very reasonable price.  They had it in green camo with a lace back, and they had one in blue camo with an open back.   Last week when I stopped in at Alice B.,  I only saw the blue one.  I have to say this blue camo tank looks awesome with blue denim!







The other item is a cute camo skirt by sanctuary that Hot Mama posted on Facebook last week.  In the picture, it is paired with the Paige "Kadie" button down shirt, which I had tried on previously, and really liked.  It's a good camo combo on the Hot Mama website.

Hot Mama also has some other cute camo pieces, like a great jacket by Beulah, and a green camo tank, which is reasonably priced at $24.

Then, of course, there's Nordstrom, which has a short KUT from the Kloth camo jacket.  As you may remember, I have a Kut denim jacket, and I think it is a great piece.  This camo jacket is great for now or the fall.  It looked pretty short, though, so you may consider ordering a size up.

Let's not forget the style bloggers.  I was also lured into the camo trend by Shannon Hearts' blog.  She paired a jacket with a little dress, which is a great idea to dress the camo up a bit.  Also, Cupcakes and Cashmere showed a really stylish camo jacket by the Gap.

Wow!  And that is just the tip of the iceberg with the camo trend.  If you see more of it out there, and I am sure you will, let me know!
