What would be better to follow a post about military-inspired furniture than military-inspired fashion? This trend is EVERYWHERE right now and I can see why. It's functional, comfortable, and so gosh-darn good-looking!

The perfect compliment to this look is a great leather boot. Anyone who knows me knows I like boots. A lot. OK, I love boots. Maybe I'm obsessed. OK, fine. My name is Brooke and I am a boot-aholic.

To get this look, go for army inspired colors like olive, camel, and chocolate. Look for skinny cargoes, capes, double breasted jackets, berets, sherling accents, and leather. Lots-o-leather.

As with campaign furniture, this look has been around forever, so sometimes you can score a deal at second-hand stores. My friend found a pair of vintage leather boots that lace up the back for around $10 a month or two back. If they were in my size I would have stolen them by now. Not that I approve of such behavior..
