One of the most noticeable trends for both men and women this season, is the military look.
We have seen it filter through from catwalk to shop, the lovely mossy greens, russets and gun metals in chunky fabrics, knits and leathers from overcoats, parkas, trenches to aviator jackets. It's all about no-messing masculinity and the more sharp objects, nails or studs you can attach to your garment the better, think Mad Max.You can accessorize with heavy duty boots (something you'd be happy to go down the pit with) and maybe a knitted snood to soften and complete the look. You would normally go for one or a couple of elements that make up this look and leave the whole look for those more fashion fierce amongst you.
SINGLE BREASTED WOOLEN PEACOAT
£1,395.00 Burberry. Here's a subtler version of the trend. Long single breasted dry hand wool military peacoat.

Today I am going to review a very different specimen, I cannot say this will become popular but I find it worthy of note for its originality and elegance. The kilt-trouser as seen at the Marc Jacobs A/W 2010 collection
www.marcjacobs.com. Now the concept may be a scary one for most of you, but I assure you there's nothing feminine about this look. The trousers are beautifully tailored in lovely fabrics, the kilted element adds an extra dimension and interest. Let me know what you think.
