Hey, I'm thinking of stylin' some kind of desert look this spring/summer. Except for the obvious "desert boots" what are some essential garments I should get?

Inspirational pictures would also be nice!

Thank you!

Double hump camel is this season's must have accessory. Don't try to front with a single hump camel, you'll be laughed out of town.

Desert boots are not obvious at all actually, unless you're going for that boring safari jacket cargo pants thing.

I don't like cargo pants at all, I was thinking more of some kind of british colonial desert soldier look.

Like perhaps, beige or cream linen shirt with brown linen scarf, cotton/linen pants in khaki/desert. Heavy leather belt and shoes... not desert boots, then what? Help me out!

I never saw that colorway other than the runway. Would be so fresh but a little too warm for spring/summer weather.

Oh come on Desert boots have been obvious for the last 20 years in my books, there an old staple piece of mens footwear, nothing new and nothing fresh but always great
