Hat : Vintage Sneakers : NIKE
Hi everyone, I hope you are enjoying the weekend! It has been a super busy few days and I couldn't wait for the weekend to come!
The key item for today's look is the khaki shirt which I bought a while ago but never really had a chance to wear. I decided to try to fit it into a look because Ralph Lauren's amazing spring collection totally inspired me. This elegant collection changed my whole image of the military look and made me want to try and fit the shirt into a look of my own.

But the question is what to wear it with? I originally had difficulty because I thought khaki was difficult to match with other clothes which was the reason I didn't wear the shirt for so long.
After trying several looks and trying to figure out how to pull off a khaki item, I found some of tips which might be useful:
- Select a casual item
When you chose a khaki item go for a casual, simple item. This makes things much easier when you coordinate with other pieces.
- Coordinate with monotone
Monochrome never looks bad with any other colors! :)
If you match khaki with white it gives a cleanliness to the whole outfit and if you mix it with black it creates an edgy /men's like style.

- Spice up with accessories
Try to choose accessories which can go well with the main khaki item. Since khaki items can look too boyish, casual, or plain, add some interesting accents by using accessories such as a unique bag, shoes, scarf or hat.

待ちに待った週末がやってきました～！！先週はとてつもなく忙しかったので遂に週末が来たと浮かれているわたしです♪
今日のキーアイテムはカーキのシャツ！これ実は機会がなくてしばらく着ていなかったアイテムです。久しぶりに着たいな～と思った理由はラルフローレンのコレクションを見たから。コレクションではミリタリーをエレガントに再解釈したスタイルがとても印象的で、そうだ！カーキのシャツがあった！と思いだして、久々に着てみよう、と思ったのでした。
でもカーキのアイテムって何を合わせればいいのか…色々と試してみた結果、私なりのポイントまとめてみました :)
- カジュアルなアイテムを選ぶ
カーキのアイテムでもできるだけカジュアルでメンズっぽいシンプルなアイテムを選びましょう。
そうすることで他のアイテムと合わせやすくなります。
- モノクロカラーと合わせる
合わせるカラーはモノクロで！ホワイトと合わせるとクリーンな印象に、そして黒と合わせるとよりかっこよくてエッジーなイメージを作れますよ♥
- 小物でこなれ感を！
メインのカーキアイテムに合わせた小物を選びましょう。カーキアイテムはボーイッシュでカジュアルになりやすいので小物でバランスを取るのがコツ！例えばユニークなバッグや、シューズ、そしてハットなどがオススメ！
