When I first spotted the military trend on the runway I instantaneously fell in love. I adored the idea of an oversized masculine jacket being worn over a feminine underlay. It gave an edginess to outfits that an oversized blazer/cardigan just couldn't provide.
So when creating this 'Outfit Board' I decided to take the theme of contrast a little bit further. I paired red lips (Rimmel Kate Range - 001) and red nails (Barry M - Bright Red) with the green outfit to add not only a pop of colour (I hate using that phrase!) but an extra feminine touch to what could otherwise have become a very masculine outfit.
By paring a chunky necklace it glams up the outfit a tad without taking away from it's boldness. And then I found this 'bullet' ring on the Topshop website which I thought would look amazing with this outfit. And as for shoes, I'm not gonna lie I was a little stuck. I knew dollyshoes wouldn't compliment the outfit so I thought that Creepers would work brilliantly but if the Creepers trend isn't your thing you could always go for a pair of combat boots which would work just as well.
I really cannot wait until it starts to get a little chilly outside so I can start to incorporate these trends into my wardrobe. Only could a fashion trend make me look forward to cold weather!
