Hello all! I've been having some serious camera woes, so that's why it's been quiet this week. Last night I was going to do an explanatory post with a Photobooth shot of me and Igby looking sad. Those pictures weren't turning out, so I decided the technology gods were against me and went to bed. The winds have shifted slightly today. My camera is still pissed at me, but I was miraculously able to import a few photos including the one above of Saturday's outfit.
I haven't really done much with this spring's military trend, but I picked up these army green pants (the picture didn't capture the true color) in hopes of making a small reference to that aesthetic. I kind of wish they had some cargo pockets. How do you guys feel about the cargo comeback or the military look in general?

I love the cardigan and really like that your pants are army! I thought they were black until I read everything, hate when that happens. xoxo
I'm not really into the military look. Yet it keeps coming back! Khaki is no good for my complexion. And mostly I find it dull and ugly. I feel about the military look the same way I feel about crocs.
You though, look great in this outfit. Lovin' the hair so much! And the cardi with those pants-lovely. I would definitely wear those (despite their military reference). I suppose it could be done well (like you are doing here). But overall I find it such a blah style.

ps. had to delete a comment I accidentally made under my husband's account!!
oh no, I hate when the camera gets all weird. good luck.
Those shoes are GORGEOUS! Why can't we have Payless in Barcelona..... Jealous.
Personally I love military detailing and wear it whether it's in or not (but it is usually in). Loving this outfit. You seem to have this wonderful skill for doing pared-back style and still keeping it interesting.
Hope the camera can be resuscitated.
I'm really liking the military look that is coming back into style. Unfortunately I have not yet been able to thrift a jacket. I had two in high school that I got rid of that I am now dreaming about. I love those shoes. There are very similar ones at Old Navy that I have been eyeing for a while.
I just love this outfit, and I love how a new haircut can totally change the aesthetic of a look.
I'm on the fence about the military thing. I love, LOVE olive as a neutral, but I resist camo with my life and am pretty ambivalent about all things cargo. I'm down with khaki, though.
I love this outfit.. I have a similar cardigan from express that I use all the time. I am enjoying the military trend.. But not so much the cargo pockets.

I'm not really into outright military themes like camo print or cargo pockets, but I like olive green, drab browns, cadet blue, etc., mixed with pastels, brights, and girly prints.
Nice outfit! ;-)
A Shopaholic is loose...
Love this look on you!! And I am REALLY loving this hair!! :)
Love the black and white animal print cardi with the yellow shoes!
For some reason, I really love this look with your new haircut. Very nice mix!
Been reading your blog for awhile, and I think that this look, especially with your current haircut, is uber chic. Very sixties, very modern, and suits you very well.
Just wanted to give a well deserved comment.
Looking good! I love the yellow shoes!!
I've always enjoyed the military look, personally. It's actually something that's a large part of my wardrobe whether in or out of trend. I'm not really drawn to a khaki color military piece, but I often find myself drawn to navy and olive green. There's something so tough-girl and structured about it, yet one can make it feminine, too.
i love that look! those shoes give a pop to your ouftit!

Hi! Found your uh-mah-zing blog via Greedy Girl -- and she's totally right: you rock.
Love this 'fit!
I'm in love with you and your blog. I'm so happy I found it through another one...I love your style!
I'm a fan of the military look. Of course, one must be choosy with military pieces. I think it's best done in a non-literal way(so no camo). I have a green, military-style trench and I love throwing it on top of jeans and a white or navy-striped tee.
I love the military look. I bought this great olive green military inspired blazer thing when military was all over the place a few years ago, and now I feel the need to use it! The winter coat I got also is a bit military inspired, with epaulets and shiny buttons. I like how the military look makes girly prints more edgy. You have now inspired tomorrow's outfit! Haha!
Also, I pretty much fell in love with your outfit.
First of all, your hair looks great! I love everything about this look, but I think I may have dreams about those shoes tonight. I LOVE them!
cargos are a slippery slope.
i love your outfit, those shoes are awesome! i never find anything that good at payless. and i love the military trend, i love the look of pairing girly, lace things with edgy military inspired pieces.
love sandals!!

I hate cargo pants, but do otherwise like the military look. I love it, actually. Once again, fabulous shoes. I'm shocked that Payless has such nice shoes.
such a great outfit!
Amazing! I love every piece!
Did you get those shoes at Payless recently? Were they a special edition or something? I scour Payless relentlessly, but I haven't seen them.

Sorry, the Payless shoes are from a couple of years ago...
I love this outfit! :)
love your style! you look stunning!
