This fall, the military/utilitarian trend continues on steady and strong. From jackets, to shirts, to purses, to pants...we're seeing structured olives and khakis with pockets and metal fasteners and adornments. I like the look and I like the colours- these neutral shades make it easy to match military with many existing articles already hanging in your closet. Also, skinny styles are my favourite when it comes to pants- they also tend to have spandex as part of their composition (this means stretchy, which = comfort)!
One particular article under this trend that has become fairly popular is the
skinny cargo pant. This summer, many celebs sported them and as fall crept close. many brands have fashioned their own versions. My personal favourite is the
Paige skinny cargo (which
Envy is currently carrying)- within the month they shall be mine!
Check out who's has been wearing a pair of
skinny cargos and then keep scrolling down for a collaboration I've put together featuring many olive skinnies (and where to find them)!
Many a celeb has been seen sporting them out and about...
Hilary Duff, Khloe Kardasian, Ciara
Jessica Alba, Rhianna, Gwen Stefani, Hilary Duff (again)
Rachel Bilson Leighton Meester
You'll also be seeing them pop up on fashion blogs.
Seeing them on "regular girls", I personally find, is more inspiring for current and upcomming trends!

Right now, despite the fact that we've begun the descent towards fall, the heat still barges on. The last few days I've refused to go anywhere that hasn't been air conditions because of the humidity! So, here on the east coast, most of us are not pulling pants from our closets lately. But when it's time to do some pants shopping, here's a visual to consider:
