Colour pair
Camel and Mustard: Do They Go Together?
Yes. Camel is a neutral, so it lets mustard be the accent without clashing. Either colour can go on top; keep the lighter one closer to the face if you want it to look fresh.

The two colours
What camel and mustard each bring
camel
A warm, mid-light tan with a golden cast. It looks expensive, especially in wool coats and knits, and warms up every cool colour next to it.
Works best as: Overcoats, knits and trousers.
mustard
A deep, warm yellow with a brown cast. Autumnal and vintage-feeling, it's easier to wear than bright yellow.
Works best as: Knitwear, skirts and scarves.
