I'm noticing a trend: I like to mix military and floral trends (like I did here last week) so I'm dubbing a new term - military florals. Or should I call it "milorals" or "flilitary"? haha! In other news, this is also a sneaky way to wear green to the office on St. Patrick's Day. :-)
Styling tip: Take a page from my book and mix some military and florals this week! Don't have a floral skirt? Try a pair of military cargos or skirt with a floral top, or a military jacket with floral underneath.
Tell me: what are you guys wearing for St. Patty's Day today?! Feel free to share a picture to the Facebook page!

ReplyDeletethis outfit is beautiful, thank you for the inspiration! i recently bought a military jacket and didn't think of pairing it with a floral top. can't wait to try this! :)
ReplyDeleteps. whenever i go shopping now, I always think "what would J do?" ;)
I am totally loving the military floral pairings, too! I just tried on that Loft top in pink the other day with a floral skirt and fell in love! Looking to re-create it at some point!

Mixing military/utilitarian with florals or other soft feminine pieces if one of my favorite looks!!
ReplyDeletei love mixing floral and military! this outfit is great and something i'll have to try too!
ReplyDeletecute & little
Being a military wife you would think I would have some - guess it time to go shopping
ReplyDeleteI love it great idea I would have never thought of that. I wish I could show you what I wore today. We had an office potluck so I just wore some dark indigo pants and a bright green polo tshirt. Ill see if I can take ap ics and upload it.
ReplyDeleteYes! Please snap a photo with your cell phone and upload it, would love to see, sounds cute! :-)
ReplyDeleteI didn't think you had a job?
ReplyDeleteI do have a JOB, but if you are saying that I don't work in an OFFICE, then you are correct.
ReplyDeleteGreat outfit, J! I've been eying those shorts at LOFT. I love how you used the outfit for your own inspiration! Perfect as always! :) I'm going to have to try my own version. Happy St. Paddy's Day!
ReplyDeleteHonestly, I'm not loving the outfit, but I DO love the skirt; its so bright and pretty!
ReplyDeleteI have that skirt from JCREW! I usually pair it with a lime green blouse. The guy at Jcrew suggested it - otherwise I never would have thought to pair it with the green color.
ReplyDeleteI wore this skirt last summer a TON. Lime green was my first pairing, see here! :-)
