Invest in a good khaki coat during the big sales will benefit you for the whole year, so here are my tips on where to get it and how to wear it

The key to a truly versatile and fun wardrobe is stocking key staples in neutral colours and of course, collecting the colour(s) you truly love. Khaki, its ever so specific desaturated earthy personality makes it the perfect 2017 new neutral to change up your wardrobe for the new season.
How to wear it? Trust me on this, khaki will camouflage right into your everyday wardrobe (pun intended). However, for an effortlessly put together look, keep the whole outfit to no more than two key colours. Reference khaki’s badass military roots with oversized details such as structured utility pockets, collars and lapels, then inject a smart-casual touch with a oxford shirt or monk-strap leather boots – my picks are these Calibre Monk strap boots and LIQUOR & POKER burgundy skinny biker jeans. A big ‘yes’ also goes to transeasonal knits and casual shirts in camel, grey, maroon or beige when styling with your khaki. Try these ZARA MEN maroon chinos in a casual cut for dressing the coat down, or these window pane trousers for a smart casual look.
