Tough love...
As I've mentioned before, I've always loved a mix of tough, masculine pieces with fun, flirty, feminine pieces.
I believe, a forest green military/utility jacket is the perfect way of adding some tough love to any fall outfit!
This jacket is light enough for those pleasantly cold days of fall and can be worn in many different ways- buttoned up, belted or just throw 'em on!
I thought the color palette of moss green, burnt orange and rich caramel is so apt for this season. Honestly, I, myself, am a little obsessed with the almost perfect blend of the flirty, feminine pieces- the floral printed short skirt, ruffle blouse and orange heels- with the masculine vibe created with the military jacket, broad, worn out, leather belt and the aviators.
Some tough love, indeed!
Tell me, do you like mixing masculine and feminine pieces in an outfit?
Today I'm linking up with The Pleated Poppy for her What I Wore Wednesday and Rolled Up Pretty for her Whatever Whenever Wednesday.
What I Am Wearing:
utility jacket- Old Navy (buy it here) skirt- H&M top- The Limited belt- Fossil
bag- Steve Madden heels- Gianni Binni aviators and watch- Guess
Thanking you Yours fashionably
Juneli
P.S: I'm so happy that the 'golden hour' photographs turned out so well .

Mixing girly pieces with edgier/tougher ones always makes for a great look! I have a jacket like this that I love throwing on over skirts and dresses for that exact purpose. This color combo is great and the belt really helps define your waist.
