Fashion on the Web: A Tough but Sweet Spring Trend

LaROK at ShopStyle

Shop Style is a really fun site for fashion and beauty. This is a look I created after browsing through real world magazine Marie Claire based on the early spring trend of mixing structured military styles with whimsically feminine tulle and sheers.

If you love the idea of this look you can check out online retailers through shopstyle. Or you can check out your local vintage boutiques ;) Look for:

  • a fitted military jacket
  • a midlength to short tulle or mesh skirt
  • in light spring neutrals and pastels: beiges, cream, sage, dusty pink

Then dress yourself up for a look that is sweet and tough!

Where would you wear this? It’s a great daytime look that would be just lovely for a date on the weekend, but would definitely hold it’s own at the office. Just be conscious of skirt length.

Happy Fashion Friday!
