a week of blazers. military.

i know this isn't exactly a blazer, but it was the color and style i envisioned with this frilly dress. i'm a sucker for things with gold buttons...adds oomph to ordinary pieces and just feels regal. maybe not this particular jacket, but
think band uniforms, military uniforms, and...
michael jackson's wardrobe?

what do you think about military inspired pieces?

First off your necklace is amazing! And I absolutely love the military blazer with the pretty flouncy dress. It's awesome to pair feminine pieces with tougher ones like a military coat, I love the juxtaposition!

Hi! Maybe you should dress up like this more often. It looks good on you, such a stunning look! I agree with the blazer, the gold detailing adds more appeal.

This jacket looks like it was made to be paired with this dress! Anything military paired with feminine/frilly is always a great combo.
