Military Jackets

Rocking a military jacket is such an easy way to add flair to your ensemble. Military/band jackets take the basic blazer look to an entirely different level and the detailing & structure of these jackets definitely command attention.

Balmain has become the poster child of the high fashion military/band look. Celebs are spending a pretty penny — or not — on Balmain’s ever popular pointy shoulder military-inspired jackets. Beyoncé is a fan and had a bedazzling dinner in NYC in this crystal embellished Balmain jacket. Of course Balmain isn’t the be all and end all of military jackets. Teyana Taylor is pictured on the red carpet in a cute & casual red military jacket. Jennifer Hudson added a feminine touch in a ruffled Alexander McQueen military jacket for her Super Bowl appearance.

When shopping for your military/band jacket, you can choose from flashy and daring (Michael Jackson inspired) or classic buttoned looks. Pair ‘em with jeans, skirts, and your favorite lace-up or over-the-knee boots.
