Military Madness

With spring just around the corner, it's almost time to put away those wintry boots and take out the sunglasses and sandals! And on those beautiful spring days when you'd rather be anywhere but in class, it may be tempting to throw on a tank-top, shorts, and flip-flops just to get you through the day. But spring fashion can be both effortless, comfortable, and stylish! I've taken DKNY's military inspired look for spring 2011 (shown right) and converted it into campus-friendly fashion look for under $120---far less than the cost of only the DKNY dress retailed at $295.00.



1. Short-Sleeve Military Shirt Dress, $69.90, Express.com

More details

This military shirt-dress featured in the color "pearl" is very similar to DKNY's dress. Both dresses have bronze button details to add to the military look and are structured and cinched at the waist to flatter your figure!





2. SO Serina Wedge Sandals, $33.99, Kohls.com

More details


Even though the DKNY model (featured above) is wearing black, stiletto high heels, we all know this isn't a practical shoe option when you need to walk around campus all day. Instead, I've selected a black, low wedge sandal that is the perfect combination of style and comfort.



3. Paisley Print Scarf, $12.50, OldNavy.com

More details

To accessorize her look, the DKNY model sports a black, tan, and pink scarf. For more of a spring vibe, I've chosen a black and white "neutral combo" paisley print scarf from Old Navy. Light and airy combined with a floral pattern makes this scarf perfect for spring!




Total Outfit Cost: $116.39
