the it lists – fashion & trend blog

To take an outfit to the next level of fabulous – it’s all about the jackets lately.  Fall must-have was the boyfriend blazer and although we’ve seen it transition into spring in pastels and white, there is a new contender in the game.

The Military Jacket no doubt is this seasons must have.  It seems everything that hit the runway for the Balmain S/S ‘09 collection has quickly developed into a trend and one amazing embellished jacket comes to mind whenever I think of that collection.

But really who can afford that jacket?  Military jackets are popping up as we speak.  I snatched up an amazing white one at the Flare Magazine FCUK event which was undoubtedly my best purchase of the season.

And for summer days when you can’t justify rocking 3/4 sleeves a great variation is the military vest.  I saw an amazing one at Bebe that I’ve not been able to get off my mind.  Pair with a silk racerback tank, light denim skinny ankle jeans and some fierce stilettos and be prepared to be ‘fired’ with compliments.
