I've noticed a fall fashion trend lately that piqued my interest in a visual way. I don't think it represents the image that I'm going for personally, but I do appreciate some of its aesthetics. The military look is very now. I've seen it in fashion rags, store shelves and even on Dancing with the Stars tonight. It was bound to happen - a war-weary culture that is trying to find some beauty and relevance in our everyday lives outside of the news reel. Quite a story if you think about it. I can appreciate the squared cuts, the shiny brass hardware, the inherent practicality of multiple pockets (even of the superficial kind.) Although the muted, camouflaged colors are astoundingly boring, there's something very autumnal about them too. Whatever the reason, the military look is the hot look for fall. Among the contenders, here are a few of my favorite pieces. - l.o.d.
