5 Effortless Ways of Wearing Camouflage Prints

Originating from the military combat fields, the camouflage print landed on the runways years back and still seems to be going strong. Today, camo clothing can be seen everywhere including high street fashion, red carpets, and fashion weeks as well.

In the field, camouflage clothing is used to blend in to escape the enemy’s eye. Whereas, in the fashion world, camo puts you in the limelight. It is said to have a masculine feel that often does not look good on women but we’re in 2021 now! Boundaries of clothing genres have blurred, except for a few items, most of the clothing is considered gender-neutral. When men can wear skirts and women can raid men’s closets, why can’t we make peace with women wearing camo clothing.

The rugged and attractive-looking print is now used to make shirts, t-shirts, jackets, trousers, accessories, and whatnot. If you buy one item of camo clothing each, I’m pretty sure you’re never going to run out of styling options. Using these camo clothing articles, you can easily make a bold style statement. There are multiple ways to wear camo print, some are subtle and some not so subtle. In this article, we are discussing how women can effortlessly incorporate camouflage prints in their outfits and make a strong statement every time they step out.


 Camo the Minimalistic Way

This look is for the ones who do not have an extravagant style taste and like minimalistic fashion. They like to keep their attire minimal, sober, and easy. This look can easily be created with your everyday staple items without taking up very much of your time.

Everyone has a white button-down shirt that they either bought for themselves or stole from their man’s closet. Both of them will work just fine. Pair the plain shirt with a pair of camo shorts. Add a black or gold belt at the smallest part of your waist. Wear white sneakers or black heels, depending on where you are headed.

This look will not accentuate the camo shorts and instead, it will make them visible in just the right way when you walk or sit. The white top will of course highlight the camo shorts, but it will do it in a very simplistic non-dominant way. You can also throw in a chunky gold bracelet in the mix if you want to complete the glamorous look.


Make Camo Stand Out

After the subtle minimalistic look, let camo take the center stage now. This look is also pretty easy to pull off. And along with being easy, it is quite comfortable as well. The pieces included to nail this look can easily be found in the market and online as well.

You might have a short black dress somewhere scooped up in the closet that you have maybe worn too many times and now thinking of giving it up. It is now time to take it out and revamp it. Wear an oversized camouflage shirt or jacket over the black dress. You can pair it with sneakers, boots, or stilettos, that is totally up to you.

Add a little jewelry or some other shiny ornaments like a chain or a thin bracelet to add a little sparkle. Balance out the look with a small-sized sling bag. Don't go for a big bag like a tote or shoulder bag, as it will not let the camo shine.

Add a Dash of Vibrant Color

Camo print has dark and subtle colors and sometimes makes an outfit look too masculine and bland. If you are open to experimenting with your style, try pairing the camo with a pop of vibrant colored articles.

Go for a camo bottom such as camo pants, shorts, or skirts and pair them with a bright-colored top. You can also add a blazer or jacket of the same color to make it look sophisticated. Pick one color that you think you can carry with the camouflage and avoid adding multiple colors.

Another thing to remember here is when you are choosing a bright-colored garment to pair with camo, it should be plain. Multiple patterns in a single outfit conflict with each other and it ends up being a massive disaster. You want one item from your outfit to shine and that item should be the camo. Add shoes of the same color as your top and you’ll turn heads wherever you go.

Give Camo an Edge

To give camo the biker style look you do not have to do put in much effort. Mixing and matching a few basic pieces will do just fine making you look edgy and stylish.

You will be needing a black bodysuit or a tank top. Tuck it in the camo pants, you can opt for fitted or loose but we suggest you go for the fitted one to accentuate your curves. Don a black leather jacket, it can regular size or cropped. Anyone would do just fine. Add a cashmere infinity scarf if you want and leave it out.

For shoes, you can either go for knee-length boots or strapped high heels, whatever style you want that’s up to you. You have already added many layers, jewelry is not needed much. Just wear a gold watch and that would do.

Make it Low Key Sparkly

Camouflage clothing is mostly paired with basic and neutral pieces to make the print stand out. Even if you are choosing colors with the camo clothing, they as well have to be basic items. But there is another way to put in patterns and not let it ruin the look.

Here we are talking about accessorizing! Accessories give the outfit a little sparkle with overdoing it and ruining the look of the camo. If you are pairing camo trousers with a basic tee, a brown basic jacket with a black tee and camo pants or a black dress with a camo jacket, there is always room to add statement jewelry pieces. The jewelry will balance out the subtlety of the outfit with its sparkle and you’ll shine sporting an effortless look.
