I have had this bag, forever. Well not forever, but for a good eight or so years. It was my first big purchase. She's a Chloe. The bag I chose to buy when the Paddington was huge and I didn't want to follow the pack. I love her. Mainly because she is practical and holds everything, but also because she is classic, and twinkles with a hint of both silver and gold. And when themes like military roll around (as they so often do) she makes the perfect bag. Urban yet glam. I have mentioned my love of khaki before (see here), and I don't see it going away soon. Mixed with pretty vintage pieces and classic black boots, a khaki jacket is a perfect nod to the trend that will take you from winter into summer. And with Zara and Topshop showing such fabulous affordable versions, I say jump online now. Heck visit the stores in Melbourne, they are probably already here. x K
London has gone crazy for khaki, and I am loving it. Stud collared shirts? Check. Camouflage jackets with juxtaposed bling pocket detail? Yes please. Oversized knits with studded shoulders? Don't mind if i do. And the perfect way to wear it is by teaming a great khaki piece with something amazingly girly underneath. (Especially loving the Topshop military jacket and lace dress combo above!) Don't feel ready to attempt this girly vs. tough girl look? Go old school and try a camo back pack. The perfect accessory, army style. x K
