A simple navy tank top paired with army green camouflage print pants begins the outfit on a masculine note. By layering a soft and comfortable gray sweater with fringe edging, warmth is added both visually and literally to what could be a harsh outfit.

The feminine additions continue with gold accessories throughout. A simple gold layered necklace stands out against the dark navy tank, perfect to draw the attention up from the otherwise busy pant pattern. To add some sparkle and shine to this Fashionista’s wrist a gold watch layered with a jeweled gold bracelet are two more details that soften this military inspired look. Mauve leather flats with snakeskin detailing add another dimension of adventure to this ensemble, with the same type of detailing in the Fashionista’s metallic snakeskin belt. The look is completed with tortoise-rimmed sunglasses great for shielding the sun away from the rays couldn’t be hidden by those camo pants.

How To: Looking to hit the bullseye with an outfit like this? Start with an army inspired item such as a utility jacket, camouflage top or khaki pants then add feminine touches such as a muted sweater, dainty gold jewelry or ballet flats.

However, watch out for clashing patterns or too many different colors, the goal is to look strong yet feminine. So whip out your pastels and army prints, because it’s time for femme fatale to have more of an image than just a Britney Spears song.
