Not so crazy eights: Camel

I know that nobody can go out and buy twenty new items of clothing, so I've been trying to think of how someone would begin the process of building a curated, distilled wardrobe.  Of course, it really has to start with some serious thinking!  But once you've chosen a core color from which to work, you could certain do worse than carefully acquiring a basis of eight garments upon which to build.  This is how I see it taking shape... ...

She had worked in an office all day.  I had been home job hunting.

I feel like I'm doing something very wrong....

But the bright side of this is how very versatile a taupe tee shirt can be!  That was the lesson that I've taken away from this encounter.
