Easy outfitting in a military jacket and jeans.
Jackets make my world go round, okay? Toss a cool jacket on over the most basic of outfits, and you’ve got yourself an effortless style statement. I took a basic black turtleneck and skinny jeans (last seen here with that baller button-up) and threw a cool cotton military jacket with gold buttons and gold piping on over the top. Β Those incredibly on-trend loafer mules finished the look; get them from Target while you can. Β No fuss, but super polished. Interesting, but without trying too hard.
Shop the look:
We’re in thatΒ cold spring mode here in KC; some days will end up in the 60s or 70s, but most start near freezing and climb only to the low 50’s. While this isn’t parka weather, jackets are an absolute necessity. I love this military jacket as a topper for now, and will see about remixing it over crisp white summer dresses or even as a polished spin with leggings and sneakers.

I’m so happy that Target is on the mule trend. I just got a floral pair. And I love this military inspired jacket on you, too.
Your outfit is so cute! π xx
I’ve been so obsessed with the loafer slip-on trend that’s been going on lately. I bought myself a pair as well and think you look super cute in them paired with that military jacket!
the jacket looks great!!
Cute! I love the jacket. π
I love the detailing on your jacket, and those loafers were such a great find!

That jacket, I love it! And you’ve gotta love Target’s shoes. I’m loving the days that are cool enough for a jacket but warm enough not to need a big coat!
I love your shoes, I’ve been lookikng for a pair of mules but I can;t find them anywhere
