Sargeant Safari and her Tribe of Expatriates

Spring is here and all of the Glamazons are hiting the concrete jungle in the season's hottest trends.... The "oh so now" look is an effortless mix of deconstructed-soldier, animal prints, safari gear, and tribal inspired jewelry and accessories!


Yes, Sargeant Safari is a fictional person but I envision her strewn across her dusty throne in Southern Africa wearing an adorned Military jacket, a ruffled cream tunic, cropped skinny cargos, drenched in animal print cuffs and bangles up her thin arms, and a pair of fierce untied combat boots... it's a little much for your Tuesday morning Starbucks run but if you want to be in HER tribe then take a cue or two from her Majesty!



Starting with the newest rendition of the military style- this time around it's much more of a casual look... disheveled even. Really anthing army green will do.. maybe throw in some pins and a belt from Uncle Sam's Outfitters, a super feminine white ruffle skirt or dress, and BOOM.. You're in! Totally kill it with the Alexander Wang opentoe boots that lace-up AND zip and well... we bow at your stylish feet! J Crew has an army green printed short, Dylan George - Skinny Cargo's, Marc Jacobs - jackets and skirts, really everywhere you look you will find hints of this style and it's not going anywhere... but did it ever in the first place? If you wear this style this season be sure to let it hang, picture the slouchy soldier.. messy braids and buns and you will really pull it off! Sir yes sir ;)



Safari and Animal prints are a definite do.. It goes hand in hand with the messy Military girl.. A really fun way to modernize this look is to throw on a pair of distressed, off-white denim - Try Seven's Roxanne Skinny with Peekaboo Grey in Marah White (Yes, we have them at LUNA!)... the grey gives it that dingy just off the Jeep look and pair it with a structured twill Jacket and an animal print accessory and you will be so now. As far as animal print, think Giraffe or python, mabe even a little Zebra. Another oh-so Aniston look that you can tie in with your cute Safari accessories would be to wear a cropped Cargo pant with a tucked in neutral T and Metalic printed heel, finish with big, native inspired earings and a clean ponytail.

It's a jungle out there but I am sure with a bit of regimented style you will be your own Chief in the wild world of fashion!

Don't forget JOHNNY BANANAS at NICHE today!! Hope to see you there!!
