Camo and I have quite a history...

 Back in high school when I was exploring possible colleges, I was pretty set on my now alma mater, Indiana University.  However, that's also where my high school boyfriend was seriously considering, so my parents wanted to be very sure I wasn't going there for him.  I wasn't.  To make sure they believed me, I looked into a few other places and even went to visit a few.  One school I visited was Oklahoma University.  It looked pretty on the mailers they sent me, and they had a business program of sorts.  So, one weekend my parents and I ventured down for a formal campus tour.  Before the tour even began, I knew I wouldn't attend college there.  Everyone in the tour group was wearing camouflage in some form or another.  My memory may be exaggerated, but while I sat in the initial meeting, looking down at my sequined flats, I knew I didn't belong there.  I also formally swore off camouflage that very moment.

Fast forward quite a few years, and here I am embracing it open-heartedly.  I blame J.Crew.
