Beautiful Military Clothing

Like the little black dress, when done right, military clothing is a timeless classic. With the hard angles and the tailored lines, camouflage clothing sends a message of strength, precision and a take-charge attitude that can easily empower any wardrobe. Of course, there is a fine line that exists between channeling Timothy McVeigh and taking a fashion-forward stance with your military clothing.

Consider the Fit
Soldiers in the military often take the extra step to having their military clothing and uniforms tailored for a one-fo-a-kind fit. While this may not be an option in your wardrobe, the very least you can do is make sure that each piece fits you correctly. Avoid items that are too tight or that swallow you alive.

Understand Your Options
When it comes to camouflage, there are about a billion different options, with different primary colors and patterns. There are the traditional greens, but also pixel prints. Arctic gear and urban gear offer two very different palettes. Think about what colors and patterns will best suite your skin coloring, eye coloring and hair coloring. Try to chose those that will be most flattering.

Don't Overdo It
There's no need to get in the full battle rattle to give your outfit a military edge. Military clothing can be used sparingly, to "spice up" an otherwise understated outfit. For example, having a tailored military jacket can toughen up the little black dress and be paired with a combat boot inspired shoe ensemble. Look for ways to translate camouflage clothing and garb into high-impact accessories. Find clever ways to incorporate badges, patches, insignia and more to add a little oomph to your next outfit.

Don't Be Afraid to Look Online For Inspiration
If you know that you're looking for a way to add a military edge to your next get-up, take some time to search through Google images for "sexy military fashion", "trendy military outfits", "military fashion", "high-fashion camouflage" and other similar search terms. What you find might just surprise, inspire and motivate you to taking the next step into fashion-forward military designs.

Pair it all with the right hair and make up and you can't help to make a statement the moment you walk through the door.
