Fashion: Military Inspired Jackets

Photo: Monoreno.com

Fashion has traditionally been inspired by the crisp clean look of military uniforms  Think Navy Pea Coats and the leather bomber jacket craze.  Every few years we recirculate the military or cargo jacket trend and this fall you are certain to see that trend popping up in many different forms.

One of the styles that is popular for fall 2106 is this lightweight jacket with zipper detail on pockets and back bodice, side button epaulettes, and two button cuffs.  Will look super cute paired with a floral dress or all black as pictured above.  Jacket available from +LDesigns Boutique at +Frisco Mercantile.

This scaled down look is inspired by what we seen on the high fashion runways:

Fashion: Sequins Sequins Everywhere!

Once again we are seeing the use of sequins in high fashion.  Though it is probably unrealistic for most of us to wear full length garments adorned in sequins in our everyday life, an easy way to incorporate this trend in our everyday wardrobe is by the use of accessories or as in this super cute tee, a little splash of sequins on the pocket.

This super soft heather grey tee has mixed print sleeves and a bronze sequins pocket.  Perfect to throw on for everyday life!  Available from +LDesigns Boutique at +Frisco Mercantile.

Fashion: Baseball Tee with Sequin Pocket

One of the many fashions trends this fall is the use of sequins.  Fall fashion shows displayed shiny, sparkling sequin dresses, jackets and even entire pant suits.  Now most of us are not going to run to Target or to pick up our kids at school in a full length sequin dress (if that's your style then the more power to you!) but adding a little bit of the high fashion trend in small ways to our everyday wardrobe can be fun and is much more realistic!

I love this color-blocked baseball tee with a double layered sequin pocket. Super cute and comfortable and something you can wear to any event!
