Red rocked the fall runways—from Michael Kors’ long, lean jumpsuits to Victoria Beckham’s tailored coats. Fire up your autumn wardrobe with a dashing red topper, like this military-inspired jacket by Old Navy ($120, oldnavy.com). The double-breasted chill-chaser is an affordable way to tap into two key fall trends: the colour red and the statement coat. And should you want something a little more understated, it also comes in a rich camel colour.

This versatile utility vest ($17, oldnavy.gapcanada.ca) is a nice update on the ubiquitous miltary-inspired jacket. It can be worn umpteen different ways. Try it, for starters, with a floral chiffon dress or jeans and a striped tee.

We absolutely love this streeter’s eclectic style. Though she is wearing so many different trends–fur, denim, military, tan–she still manages to nail boho chic.

You don’t need us to tell you that the military trend is here to stay. You can take the route that involves camouflage (or not), or you can try something elegant yet sporty, like this breezy shirtdress ($58, at Jacob). See this look on the runway.

The fashion world has a newfound lightness this spring with cascading ruffles, pretty pastels and sparkling embellishment. Underneath all this frothiness is an edge of military-inspired looks and sport chic. See the season’s balancing act in our Spring 2010 Trends Guide.

Lovely in…lots of laid-back layers

Spotted: Doing the mall crawl

Wearing: A thrifted jacket, boots brought back from Paris and a bag and leggings from Urban Outfitters.

Why: We couldn’t stop staring at the rows upon rows of shiny brass buttons on her MJ-inspired band-leader jacket.  Biker boots, battered and scuffed to perfection, and a loosely tousled pixie crop were the icing on the cake.

We love this casual-chic look that pairs runners with a crimson velvet military blazer decorated with a mishmash of flashy brooches and thrown over a psychedelic peekaboo pattern. How very Sgt. Pepper.
