Since their rise last fall, military jackets have been popping up everywhere; lately, soldiering the stylish streets of Manhattan.
Accompanied by cinched waists, embellished shoulders and multiple pockets, it's hard not to defend as a spring staple.
For those of you not on board with this patriotic trend, you may want to start.
Designers like Balmain, Charlotte Ronson and Marc Jacobs each had their own version of the military jacket appear on their catwalks for springtime.
From polished and understated to extravagant and unrestrained, the military jacket is the perfect transition piece that gets us to finally put away our heavy winter coats, yet holds us off from taking out our skimpy summer cardigans.
To pull off this easily-accessible trend, arm yourself with feminine pieces. A dress, tights or skinny jeans will all work in the line of fire.
