Fall 2010 Fashion Trend #12: Military Clothing

Good Evening Beautiful People!

I am writing so late in the day because I was truly stumped as to what to blog about today.  So after a few hours of retail therapy with image consulting clients I decided it is officially time to start my list  of the season’s hottest fashion trends for fall!  Oh, I know it is still blazing hot outside, but at the least you should be aware of what to keep an eye out for as the weather begins to change.  My first pick for this fashion trend countdown is military clothing for women.  I know, many of you are thinking this is not a new trend and you are absolutely right!

Military clothing for women has been a hot trend for about the past three seasons.  However, the difference this fall is that much focus is given to the structure, detailing, and functionality of jackets in the arena of military clothing.

Military Clothing Trend Tip #1: Army Green is still Smokin’ Hot! That’s right, for the military clothing trend for women, you can stick with the basics in army and olive greens.  Just be sure to go big with the details like gold or brass chains and buttons.  For an offbeat twist, I like Juicy Couture Striped Military Cardigan.

Military Clothing Trend Tip #2: Go for Cropped & Long Jackets. In your wardrobe this fall, include at least one cropped military jacket and one 3/4 length military jacket.  You will be surprised at how versatile these jackets prove to be.  For a long trench style of military jacket, my pick is ADAM Military Style Trench Coat

Military Clothing Trend Tip #3: Functionality + Utility are Key. Aviator as well as Army looks of 20th century military are easily fused in this seasons’ collections.  Go for pieces with a great cut that specifically work for you! My vote for the best in military clothing that encompasses functionality, utility and style is the Free People Skinny Military Pants. You can throw these pants on with virtually any top and be out the door!

Lesson Learned? Army green is still hot, while detail and length should be embraced as well.  And lastly, don’t forget to only buy functional styles that suit you best!
