Safari Army

Chloe S/S 2010 RTW

Whether it's a tough military look from Balmain or a much softer safari style from Celine, army greens, browns and khakis are sure to make a splash this spring. I call it 'Safari Army'. Unlike some recent trends, this trend is not a fad but a fashion staple. Everyone should own a cool military-style jacket or a safari-style cape. I particularly like it when it's mixed with a feminine silhouette like an army jacket over a pretty dress, as on the Phillip Lim runway.

i never tire of the military/army inspired look -it always seems to reinvent itself to something new and exciting every year. my fave interpretations above are the chloe and celine ones.

I love those Alexander Wang lace-up boots. The zip detail and the way it looks like it peels and has a layer underneath is beautiful.

Love the outfit by Boy by Band of Outsiders, very simple yet chic. very resort! Also love the embellished shoulders of the Balmain jacket in the first photo!
