I find the Military trend that has of late been circulating its way through Fashion editorials, irresistible. I've seen it done spanning anywhere from grunge to adorable, effortless to high fashion. I wanted to incorporate that idea into my look. Add a hint of florals, c’est fini!

What I would fancy wearing to Paris Fashion Week, if the weather permitted.

Key influences: Military fatigues, gardens, zippers, neutrals and vivid red.

The combination of the corset fitted dress and wrap top transported me back as early as the 16th Century, when women wore corsets regularly with every outfit.

You look like a model. Loves the firs photo and the collage mock up of inspirations.

I really love the dress and the inspiration but I feel like the cardigan brings the looks down from high-fashion to pretty regular, maybe something more structured or something that doesn't mess with the waist proportions like that cardigan does...love the shoes and dress, though!
I love this cobo of dress. Never thought of pairing this dress with that military color.

I like the idea of mixing florals with the military jacket...but the poofy-ness of the dress makes it a little weird at the waist. Nevertheless, very creative! xo

I like the mix of colors, give it a look more urban and less romantic dress is interesting, a great success.
Great styling of that dress!
When are you going to be in Paris for the fashion week? I still can't decide when I'll be coming, it sucks to have to wait so much for the invitation eheh... but I'd LOVE to meet you there!!
Love this play on military style. It's a feminiw twist. Nice work!
Yes, I am not the only one completely and utterly falling for this military trend. To me, though, it never goes out of style...
And that DRESS! I never make it to H&M, so the only Garden Collection item I knew of, really, was the floral tunic... this is BEAUTIFUL!
you look stunning!!! loving the colors!
xoxo
