Royal Underground Military Jacket

Forget camouflage, get your military style inspiration from a soldier’s dress uniform.  Military jackets are featured in the September 2009 issue of Lucky Magazine as one of “Fall’s Most Versatile Pieces.”  A little school-girl chic, a little rock and roll, they’ll lend a tailored look to everything in your closet.  This fall, the styles are more understated than in the past — black enamel buttons rather than gold and more feminine, but they’ve still got great structure and detailing.  Pair with a ruffled blouse and pencil skirt for work or a strapless dress on the weekend.  We love Royal Underground’s jacket (check out those grommets close-up!), as well as Old Navy’s bargain casual blazer ($39.50).
