No. 2: Camel
-
Why we love it: Its good looks and fresh attitude
have long made camel a favorite of fashion designers, including Ralph
Lauren and the late Bill Blass. Camel packs enough flexibility for subtle
and edgy treatments alike.
How to use it: Strike a balance with colors that pop. You can spice it up with red, or use it to tone down bright orange or electric turquoise accents. Or, paint your walls camel and create subtle contrasts with periwinkle velvets and white linens. At left, a black-lacquer table looks great among ebony chairs upholstered in camel-colored leather (the same way a black turtleneck looks great under a camel-hair coat).
