realliferunway in Spring 2010 Looks

As you've likely noticed, the military trend has infiltrated nearly every store from Abercrombie to Zara by now.  Camo print, army green and brass buttons are going to get very old, very fast.  Talk about army fatigue!  That's why I loved this look from Rag & Bone's Spring 2010 runway.  The military-inspired jacket gets a makeover with the help of a loose-fitted white shirt, killer black booties and, perhaps most surprisingly, cropped jogging pants.  I know, not for everyone, but I love that you can rework your lulu's into this very au courant look.  Then, if you're like me and are still feeling the effects of Mini Egg season, you can toss on your trainers and go for a guilt run without having to trade up your trousers.  Or not.  Interestingly, they also make for perfect couch pants.  Real Life Runway Tip:  The little pops of citron are what make this outfit spectacular.  Not quite yellow, not quite green, the off-beat colour makes you look like a fashion risk-taker without having to go all out neon which, let's be honest, doesn't do anyone any favours.  The models at Rag & Bone sported 'Funky Limelight' nailpolish by Essie but you can find similar yellowy-green shades at most drugstores.   Otherwise, this cute mini cross-body bag from Banana Republic (one of the biggest handbag trends this season) will do just the trick.   Check back next week for my latest cross-body bag obsessions.
