One of my favorite looks is military style. I won’t even call it a trend, it’s a classic vibe that has been around for years and certainly isn’t going anywhere. I’ve been going to New York Fashion Week twice a year for a few years now and without fail, EVERY season military green is one of the most popular colors. From military style jackets, to military green shirts and even cute military inspired boots… it’s the best color and so easy to style with your existing wardrobe.
You’re all familiar with my love (ok, perhaps it’s more of an addiction) to chambray shirts, but lately I’ve been noticing more military green creeping into my closet. I personally love wearing mine with black jeans, distressed jeans and dark denim skinnies. It is also easy to wear with denim shorts and black shorts too. You know how black-on-black is often a safe look for any event? Well, I think black and military green is an amazing combination and perfect way to inject a little color, while still keeping the vibe very cool girl chic.
I recently found these amazing Derek Lam black patent point flats on sale at Century 21 (my go-to for designer brand massively reduced, seriously guys – if you don’t already shop there, check it out!). I love the super polished look they give to all my outfits… point toe flats are another trend that was HUGE at Fashion Week in September and I don’t think there’s any sign of it slowing down.
I’d love to hear what you think, do you like military style? How do you wear it? I love military green jeans too – they look amazing with black, white or grey shirts and tees.

I absolutely love that top! It’s so cute and hangs really well, which is so important in a shirt.
Very chic look! I love the patent flats.
