There’s no better time than fall for the military trend. The drak, moody color palette alone lends itself easily to the season. But the best part is what military inspired separates can do for what fall is really always about –layering!  Cargo style coats, vests and pants are great separates to mix in with dresses, blazers and seaters adding contrast and a bit of visual interest to any outfit.

Wearing military pieces for fall can instantly change up your look. You can splurge on a designer piece like 3.1 Phillip Lim’s Fall 2015 runway bomber or score a vintage jacket from your local Army Navy surplus store. Ultimately it’s the shape of the piece will guide you on how to style it and what fits work best for your body type. But the biggest trick is to think of the pieces as not just for casual dressing. You can do more than the off duty model combo of jeans, tee and bomber.

Play with contrasting proportions and shapes, mix in fatigues with luxe skirts, layer over and under and don’t forget there’s more to the military than the army. Channel a service look like gleaming double front gold buttons and military blues found in naval and air force uniforms.

Here’s 5 looks and the tips you need to master military style now!
