A More Feminine Take on the Military Look

I have to admit, I’m not much on the current trend toward military styles. Military-style items tend to be boxy at best, and gaudy at worst. I’ve seen a few people actually wearing this stuff out and about, and for the most part I think it looks kind of silly.
However… I try to keep my mind open to any possibilities, and I have to admit that this illia Crunch Leather Military Jacket is actually REALLY cute! It could be the military item for people like me who don’t really do military items. It says that it’s a leather military jacket. It looks great with boyfriend jeans too.
The thing that sets this jacket aside from others I’ve seen is the simplicity of it – other than the metal buttons, there’s not a lot of busy decoration going on here, and the solid color, for me, is a lot less harsh on the eye than some of the multi-colored jackets I’ve seen out there.


I agree regarding the military trend..! Usually the pieces look so garish and tacky, I tend to stay away. This jacket might be an exception.
