Attention Fashionistas: If you haven’t already been exposed to the Burberry Prorsum Fall 2010 show, I strongly suggest you take a few minutes to scroll through the spectacular trends that were shown on the runway. I promise you, it will be worth your time. Shearling leather sheepskin coats, vintage lace dresses, double-collar jackets, knee-high boots, with colors like camel, khaki and deep chocolate, the runway shows of fashion icons like Burberry have transported us straight into the 1920’s. Similar to the military look, this is a bold and fiercely fashionable trend that draws upon the aviation era and gives a masculine twist on traditionally feminine pieces. Throwing a rugged shearling leather jacket over a delicate dress adds a powerful statement to the overall look. Whether we’re getting ready for combat or aviation, it is clear that this year’s trends have called upon masculine themes for inspiration.
This Fashionista has undoubtedly grasped an understanding of both trends. Her sheepskin black leather jacket paired with green cargo pants and lace-up boots incorporate elements from both looks. Her aviator sunglasses and canvas over the shoulder bag tie in exceptionally well. While one could be hesitant in trying, this trend-setter is living proof that when styled correctly, two trends can merge and create excellent outcomes. If you, like me, spent an unhealthy amount of time perusing the Burberry on-line catalog, but find that spending $2,000 on one of these leather beauties is a little out of your price range, don’t fret! Visit websites like Topshop.com and UrbanOutfitters.com to find similar looks at a more reasonable price. If you’re looking for a little variety, Topshop also has vests that keep with the aviation theme. Whatever style or color you choose, these statement-making jackets will keep you feeling cozy and confident this fall!
Hint: To get the complete look down, follow this Fashionista’s advice and invest in a great pair of lace-up boots. They are showing up in stores everywhere and are extremely in at the moment. VisitPiperlime.com to view the numerous colors and styles available to choose from!
