OUR BELOVED FOREVER BOMBER JACKET ORIGINALLY WORN AS UNIFORM BY THE US MILITARY-FLIGHT-PILOTS BACK IN THE FORTIES, HAS REALLY FLOWN IT'S DISTINCTIVE STYLE ACROSS SO MANY HISTORIC ERAS. INCLUDING THE FIFTIES, EIGHTIES AND MY FAVOURITE SEVENTIES (TO NAME BUT A FEW). BUT PUTTING ALL OF THAT FACTUAL STUFF ASIDE - THE BOMBER JACKET IS BASICALLY A MUST HAVE WINTER PIECE TO FLY YOU STRAIGHT THROUGH OUR LOVELY/GRIM COLD WINTER SEASON......
THE THING THAT LITERALLY SPRUNG OUT AT ME AMONGST A SEA OF GREYS IN H&M, WAS THAT RICH IN GREEN BOLD EMERALD COLOUR (STILL OBSESSED WITH COLOUR), THE BOUNCY SHINY FINISH AND JUST HOW DRAMATICALLY OVERSIZED THE JACKET IS IN BODY. YOU REALLY WANT YOUR WINTER JACKET TO BE BIG AND BULKY FOR ALL THE EXTRA LAYERING, YET STILL FABULOUS AND STYLISH SO YOU FEEL COMFORTABLE. NOT ONLY IS THE EIGHTIES INSPIRED BOMBER J PERFECT IN EXTERIOR, (WITH ALL THE ABOVE DETAILS), BUT HONESTLY SO SNUGGLY AND WARM INSIDE (YAAAAS FOR PADDED INSTALLATION PEOPLE).
STYLE WISE YOU REALLY DON'T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT STICKING TO ANY RULES (REBELS! EEK!) AS THE BOMBER WILL PRACTICALLY GO WITH THE MAJORITY OF YOUR WINTER WARDROBE - DENIM (DARK/LIGHT), DRESSES, SKIRTS, TRAINERS, HEELS, JUMPERS, DUNGAREES, FAUX LEATHER, LONG SKIRTS, FLARES......THE LIST GOES ON AND ON. I'VE ALREADY WORN MY EDINBURGH BAD BOI (THE JACKET) WITH THE MAJORITY OF MY WINTER WARDROBE AND STILL LOVING EACH LOOK.
ON FLORA MARIA STYLE INSTAGRAM YOU CAN SEE THAT I'M CURRENTLY OBSESSED WITH ANYTHING LIGHT DENIM ATM. BUT I REALLY WANTED TO TEAM THE STRIKING GREEN AGAINST THE WARMTH OF THE CHOCOLATE BROWN ON THESE VINTAGE CROPPED TROUSERS, AS THE EARTHY COLOURS REALLY DO COMPLIMENT EACH OTHER (DON'T YA THINK?). A SLOGAN SIMPLE TEE (MORE ON VINTAGE TEES SOON) AND OOOPS OF COURSE I WENT FOR A BOOT, BUT NOT JUST ANY OLD BOOTS, A CHUNKY MASCULINE BOOT TO BE PRECISE. I NORMALLY GO FOR A POINTY TOE BUT REALLY LOVING THE SQUARE TOED BOOTS ATM, BECAUSE THEY AGAIN ADD SOMETHING DIFFERENT AND QUIRKY TO AN EVERYDAY LOOK. ACCESSORY WISE I STUCK WITH MY 'ANY OLD' FLUFFY BEANIE, THAT LIVES ON MY HEAD AND FINISHED OFF THE LOOK WITH A NEW FAUX SNAKE SKIN CROSS OVER POUCH BAG.....
SO THERE YOU HAVE A 'HOW TO' ON STYLING THE BOMBER JACKET WHICH YOU DON'T NEED TO OVERTHINK, AS THE BOMBER NICELY HAS THE ABILTY TO MAKE YOU FEEL STYLE FABULOUS DUE TO THE CLASSIC DESIGN THAT ACTUALLY SPEAKS FOR ITSELF......

It would be a total waste if I buy something expensive and only wear it for a few times. So,after reading your article. I finally made my decision with a "http://www.zaful.com/s/knee-length-lace-dress/

Hi hun, why I've only just seen this I'll never know, thanks for your comment. Yep I'm all about getting enough long lasting wear time xx Trend led pieces are great if you can find some that are timeless.
