In the previous article we introduced some shirts and dresses. When one thinks of “military”, jackets and coats will definitely come to mind.
Military style jackets/coats can create a well-defined look with a combination of feminine elements for the ladies. I love the details, cutting and the buttons which bring out the unique image. Military-feminine is also a feature of korean fashion.
Military Style Coats include the tabs/epaulet at the shoulder and synchronised rows of buttons lining the coat.
The best thing about jackets/coats, it will go out of style. Try pairing your military style coat with pleated skirts and fitted jeans or leggings. It will even go well together with maxi-dresses too. I will never leave home without a jacket/coat because it’s too simple to wear it where ever and when ever.

Alright, let’s not forget about Military style pants. They are not only essential but also a necessity, another common feature of korean fashion. I remembered it was close to end of the year and the winds were really strong, I couldn’t wear any dresses or skirts at all, thus my only choice: Pants/jeans
Military Style Capri Pants loaded with lots of silver "buckles". Pair this with boots and silver chains!
They are not only comfortable to wear but I love the way it carries out the style, causal or smart. I enjoy matching heels, sneakers, sandals, even boots, you name it and they will fit with anything. It’s that simple. Military style pants cuts are more towards skinny and shows off your curves. Right now, designers also make use the trend of high waist line. Thus, giving off a sense of classy yet sophisticated look. Try this Military style pant: The Tapered Pants.
Military style pants with patches (different colour) and big deep pockets.
With the details like silver zips and big bulky pockets, the entire look and feel of this pant is very masculine with strong clean lines. The bottom is slightly tapered but you can also unzip (small zip area at the bottom) for extra comfort.
All in all, I’m in the mood for Military style. Be it shirt, shirtdress, coat/jacket, pant, they are created uniquely and it’s easy to mix and match with our normal day to day clothing. Girls, let’s take over and prove to the boys we are in control!
