How to Wear: Military Trend

On Friday, I posted about the military or utility jacket craze happening among us.  I'm definitely a fan of this type of jacket because of its versatility.  You can dress it up, dress it down, make it casual, make it trendy etc.  Like I said in this post, it reminds me of a classic jean jacket, which...who doesn't love a jean jacket?!  For those are you who are 'on the fence' about a military style jacket, I've put together some different ways you can style it.

trendy military


Closet short sleeve shirt, / Forever 21 camouflage jacket / Paige Denim loose jeans / Tory Burch real leather handbag / CC SKYE bracelet / Loren Stewart yellow gold jewelry/ Christian Louboutin Heels 


dressed up military




Topshop dress / Old Navy canvas jacket / Chinese Laundry wedge high heels / Tory Burch bow wallet / Fantasy Jewelry Box bangle bracelet / Ivory earrings / Stella & Dot chain jewelry / Linda Farrow Luxe cateye sunglasses, / Warehouse skinny waist belt, / Essie nail lacquer


So, what do you think about the military jacket trend? Which set is your favorite? Are you going to go for the polished look, the trendy look or the dressy look? I think my favorite is definitely the polished look, but I love all three and they all serve different purposes!  Set 1 would be my 'run errands' look (OK, maybe minus the heels), set 2 would be my 'night on the town' look, and set 3 would be my 'Sunday brunch' look.

  1. Now you're making me want to get a military jacket, except it will be too hot to wear it here soon. I love the polished military look especially with the floral heels to give a feminine vibe too!
