More and more in fashion magazines we are seeing that military is the popular trend for the upcoming season. Both for men and women, military jackets, pants, boots uniforms are gracing the runways all over the world, taking the old look of the 19th century military and blending it with a new more fashionable look. In the March 20101 Issue of Vogue Magazine it was discussed how military styles are the new trend for spring, not to mention that every where you look people are sporting an array of military garb from celebrities to the runway.(Pictures taken from Vogue March 2010 Edition)
I think the key thing about Military Clothing is not so much if it is authentic or not...many things these days are simply military inspired.....but more how you wear it!!
For military clothing less truly is more. You don't have to go over the top with several different items, maybe one to two pieces. A nice military inspired coat or blouse Also for those on a budget you can always accent the articles of clothing you already have with small hints of details like buttons, chains, patches and military pins/insignia. Go to your local Military/Surplus store or even thrift store and buy something there for cheap, t-shirts, jackets, pants, etc. Then as I mentioned above, add you own flair to the article of clothing. It can be a real hit and trend setter. Military pants are also cool and sexy. Many retail stores are now carrying a military style pants, usually tapered at the bottom with large pockets on the side. Cuff them at the bottom and pair them with a heel, or a nice white blouse and some flats, they are sure to be a hit this spring.
