This might come as a shock to all of you out there who believe that black always wins when it comes to winter clothing (myself included – you can never have too many black clothes, am I right?)
However, there is a new kid on the block giving black a run for its money: khaki. Yes, you read that correctly, khaki!
This season’s khaki trend has been spotted on the runways of Balmain, Marc Jacobs and Michael Kors and sported by the likes of Kim Kardashian and her egotistical husband Kanye West, Gigi Hadid, Christine Centenera and even Queen Beyoncรฉ.
I’m not gonna lie. When someone first told me that khaki might be the new black,ย I was personally offended as I’m the kind of girl who considers grey to be a pop of colour. Nevertheless, I decided to see what the fuss is about and give this new trend a chance and guess what? Now, I’m totally digging it!
The cool thing about khaki is that it’s very versatile and can be incorporated into whatever style you like to rock.
If you’re the edgy type of girl whoย always likes to stand out, you can go for the military look which gives you that badass but still sexy vibe.
If you prefer to go for the sporty laid back look, all you need is a khaki bomber jacket and some comfy sneaks and you’re set!
Last but not least, if you’re the kind of girl whoย isn’t afraid to show off her curves in a classic body-con dress, then khaki combined with a bold lip will definitely give you that Kardashian-esque unstoppable look.
So how can you incorporate this new trend into your wardrobe? Here are a few items you should keep an eye out for when you hit the shops:
Bomber Jacket: Topshop; Bag: Chanel; Coat: New Look; Jeans: Topshop; Shoes: Isabel Marant.
A khaki bomber jacket should be a staple in every girlโs wardrobe. You can wear it in the day with a comfy tee, ripped jeans and some comfy sneaks or at night with a pair of skinny high-waisted jeans and heeled booties.
A pair of khaki ripped jeans will give your casual look that extra edge combined with your fave slouchy sweater.
These khaki Isabel Marant high tops are to die for! Theyโre super comfy too and can give any casual look that extra edge (and height! Thank God for the genius behind hidden wedges, am I right or am I right?)
