Re-use Your Muse: 5 ways to Wear the Military Jacket

If you’re nothing like your polar bear friends and constantly carry around a cardigan, jacket or any other long-sleeved companion, you’re going to love this. Behold… the endless, versatile utilitarian military jacket! Fall is transitioning into winter and no added layer of clothing is ever obsolete. Even if you’re in the lucky areas of the world where summer is a perpetual season, and a literal state of living, a military jacket can add spark and edge when needed. Wherever you are, no matter the time of year, here are five ways to make use of a popular go-to staple piece that you can find just about anywhere and at any price range. We’ve used one of our favorite repurposed cover-ups with vintage banjara patching from Rossio Roos.
