This fall, the fashion trends are SO adorable (and accessible), so I figured I’d make a little list of them this week. First up, army jackets! Would you wear this tomboy look? Perfect for the flea market and cider mill.

this is really nice blog from you i like it very much dear i would like to thank you on it and also appreciate you on this so i hope that you will post more blogs for us so nice of you
I absolutely love this show – I think especially the pink accents, trying to keep it too boxy and masculine. I have a jacket like that I love to rock with jeans and a red lip.
Pending the story of the birth when you’re ready to share! It will be very special to have captured in words, so I’m sure you will keep it just as special!

I like to look for trends such as this on eBay, that way you don’t end up spending as much money and sometimes you can find some really good deals as well.
For the military jacket trend I would recommend to search on ebay. A great example of this would be this Banana Republic Military/Utility jacket on eBay:
yes, her jacket is awesome! she is so cute :)
Motorcycle Jackets
I posted one on my blog that’s a little bit more feminine–the fabric is thinner so easier to shape (roll up the sleeves, etc). And the subject was shot by The Sartorialist, so you know it’s spot on. Love, love, love Army Jackets and I am wearing one as I write this! :)

Lovin the army jacket look or style. pair it with a skinny jeans and a combat brown boots!
i would and DO! I love anything army/tomboy style. This trend makes me happy (and suddenly, I’m current!)
aww! i never had an army jacket! but now i NEED it! lovely combination with pink!
oh, i’ve had that pic from ACL bookmarked for months! xo
Is Barbour considered army? It’s more blasted heath and moor to my mind . . .
I’m pretty sure that this jacket here is a Barbour. So not technically an army jacket but always chic. Country, city or otherwise!
i left my army jacket on a plane last month :( damn
yeah, second some of the other comments. This is a classic waxed Barbour jacket from the UK – not an army jacket. Been around for years (a 100 of them) and typically serve the wealthy country set for their shooting and fishing pursuits. Kind of fashionable at the moment. Find them here http://www.barbour.com/
Haha, I’m with Anonymous – for the first time ever, I might add. The classic oil skin, like hot cider and wellies, never goes out style. I got mine when I was fourteen and still wear it. Season prémière today, I might add.
You’ve got great photos too Joanna! I just wish we didn’t have to wait until next year for the next one.
Army jackets are LITERALLY the best jackets.
The jacket on the blog picture is actually a classic waxed jacket from Barbour, the epitome of the British country style. It was quite popular in the 80’s in Europe and had a comeback a few years ago. But it was never really out of style, at least not with a certain crowd.
BUT it has nothing in common with the army jackets to which you are linking. The Barbour was never worn in the army (see also http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/J._Barbour_%26_Sons), and the cut and style is quite different. And you would never ever see a real “Barbour girl” wearing one of the fashionable army jackets – at least not in Europe.
yes i love this look! I just got a military jacket and I’ve been wearing it and styling it up so many ways
BARBOUR!!!!!! Love it, wore mine today and good thing as Vancouver is all rain and no summer.
i’m also loving the army/military trend!! nothing like a good military trench/anorak!
love love the army jacket. My favorite way to rock it though is with something girly!
The only time I wear pink is with khaki green! Love this look :)
Love this look!
I really like that swimsuit too!
(Uh, that Toby is shameless: he’d do anything to be always cuddled by beautiful girls (mum included!)… Smart man!)

Love this trend! I got an army jacket mid summer at the Gap Outlet. It seems to be courting the safari trend, as well, but that’s okay; it was a bargain!
I;m pretty psyched to try it out with a Lacey black skirt… should be a fun mix of boy meets girl! Looking forward to more fall fashion updates!
I’ve already housed Taro’s military jacket, and I’ve been wearing it all. the. time.
I love the army jacket but I prefer to pair mine with a bit more girly pieces.
I just got myself a jacket like this recently and I love it. Mine is more fitted, but every time I wear it I get so many compliments.
Love it! I think that its such a great contrast, this jacket with something girlier, like the scarf or some great earrings.
Great to hear!
When I visited Stockholm this summer I bought a military inspired jacket, a tunic and a pair of pants in a military color. My parents made fun of me asking if I was going to join the army. Ha! Poo on them!
I’ve worn my dad’s airforce jacket & his original lined Levi jacket (from when he was a farm kid) for the last 30 years. I still do, along with my grandfather’s Liberty of London paisley scarf…I’m glad things return but people should remember that some of us “were” Kate Moss before she was born. Also, check out Army/Navy stores, etc. Best pair of shorts I ever had I bought on MacDougal in the 80s…ghurkas from Brit Army. Trying to remember name of store. I wore them all the time, including on archaeology digs.

Only the pashmina/scarfs. Way too “street” for me.
I still have mine from yrs ago. It is the perfect piece for fall.
Bought one of these on Saturday from Urban Outfitters and I can’t wait to wear it! The perfect fall jacket xx
I’m so glad I kept mine— I bought it about ten years ago at JCrew and I knew it’d be back “in” eventually:)
yes, her boots are awesome! she is so cute :)
I already do! Love them!
the army jackets i’ve seen (jcrew, apc) aren’t as heavy or shapeless as the barbours, so that might be a better option for most people.
i do, however, love my barbour, and am looking for boots just like hers to complement them.
That looks like a barbour jacket. I have one and now I just need to get a pair of wellies to match :-)
Ooooh, you *just* made me excited for fall :)
Um, YES I would!
Army jackets are the bee’s knee’s!
p.s. love your blog my friend!
I love those boots!
Barbour jackets will never go out of style, especially when paired with those cute rolled jeans and pink scarf.
I picked up a light weight military jacket at H&M late this spring to fight chilly San Fran air while out there visiting, and I cannot wait to be able to wear it on the East Coast!
I absolutely love the trend! Boden actually has one I love!
I like it :)
I’m a petite person, so often feel like I’m drowning in jackets that are a bit boxy. I like the look when I see it on others, so might have to give this a second try =)
Not sure, I think I could work with it. Warmly, Karen
i love this look! So comfortable and slouchy!
Yes I want to! But every jacket I’ve tried just makes me look dowdy and plump – not nearly as cute as this girl!

happy anniversary (if I didn’t say….) ps. have a perfect army jacket from Zara that I bought in Paris and always wear…
xo
i love the pink scarf – it really makes the outfit.
I see them at H&M, but I haven’t taken the plunge yet. I really like the style.
I think it’s cute! (:
adore the boots!
yes ma’am!
Absolutely! Although I appear girly I am actually very tomboyish at heart. I love this army green jacket!
This, trendy? Glad I don’t follow trends. LOL. This makes even me feel stylish (and I don’t have much style).
This is cute…trendy…I wouldn’t wear it because I’m short and a little chubby…I need something that will make me look thinner!!
This is too sloppy for me. Feel much more pulled together in a trench…can’t go wrong with a trench. I’d feel so crappy in this one though.
Love it! Funny it’s totally the trned, I just did a military fall fashion post, as I see a bunch of other people have lol:-) Welcome to fun fall fashion!
I just posted about my military jacket!!! http://gypsy-diaries.blogspot.com/
Come and check out my giveaway!!! It’s a pretty one! :D
as long as the army jacket pinches slightly in the waist. Or else I’d just look like a box!

Love the jacket (and the whole look), but don’t you think it takes “legs up to here” to pull it off? I fear it’d look a bit too sloppy with my 5’3″ frame… Something new I’m discovering with my daughter though is that so many places are making adult styles in tiny sizes and boy can a baby pull off any trend that *I* can’t. Target even has tweed bubble shorts with pink woolly tights in toddler sizes right now!
Oh! Where can I get those boots? The whole look makes me feel ready for fall.
I love that pink scarf! It’s so cute! xoxo
YES. something oversize, with a bit of a feminine twist.
