Bomber Jackets to Die For!

This season the bomber jacket is a must have for your winter wardrobe, but there are lots of different styles of bomber jacket to choose from.   Here's six bomber jackets that all have their own different looks and if you can't find at least one of these that will blend in well with your wardrobe, well.......maybe you need a whole new wardrobe!

Classic Black Bomber Jacket


Let's first look at the classic black bomber jacket, although this one has a very on-trend fur trim along with quilted patches which gives a nod to the retro fashion it came from.

Retro Pilot Inspired Bomber Jacket


The olive green of this bomber jacket harks back to a retro Top Gun inspired jacket so if you're ready to 'get your 80s on' then this bomber jacket is perfect!

The embroidered patches helps to accentuate the retro feel of this cool jacket.

Glamorous Bomber Jackets - It's All About The Sparkle!


I've found two bomber jackets that I think of as a little glam, one is silver so great if you're following the metallic trend this season, the other uses sequins which are always fun!

Stripe Sequin Bomber Jacket

Topshop has taken the monochromic approach to this bomber jacket and has included the popular black and white stripes with dazzling sequins to add to the glam factor.   The ribbed cuffs give it a sporty feel which means you can wear this bomber jacket day or night!

Silver Quilted Bomber Jacket


Brought to you by none other than Saint Laurent this quilted metallic leather bomber jacket is described as a high shine bomber jacket from the label's 80s infused Fall 16 collection.

It's designed for a slightly looser fit which makes it perfect for layering and is perfect over an all black evening look to add a little bit of glamorous shine!

Faux Fur Bomber Jackets


Faux Fur is very on-trend at the moment and it can look great when combined with the bomber jacket look as I'll show you here.   You could just get a faux fur lined collar on your bomber jacket or you can add a little 'je n'ais ce pas' with one of these two jackets.....

This first faux fur bomber jacket is available in burgundy a very warm color that's very on-trend for this season and perfect for a look of warmth throughout winter.

If you're after a faux fur bomber jacket, but you aren't really feeling the metallic or deep jewel colors of the season then what about a neutral colored faux fur bomber jacket with a casual, boho chic feel to it?

Now before you think neutral is boring, let me tell you there's nothing boring about this jacket.  It's ombre, shaggy and it makes you just want to reach out and touch it.   I can't wait to try it on!

So which of these fun bomber jackets to you want this season?  Personally I want two of them - yes I know I'm greedy, but.....the classic black Georgina is a great bomber jacket that will fit beautifully into my wardrobe whereas the ombre faux fur is a jacket that I have fallen in love with!

Tribal Inspired Summer Outfit


The main piece of this gypsy princess inspired outfit is the midi dress.   The midi dress is a light weight gauzy cotton dress perfect for the heat of summer.   A strapless dress it features crochet detailing which is very on-trend again this year along with cutouts and tribal inspired trim.   

The ombre shimmer kimono over the top of this dress is perfect for taking it from the day on the beach to the evening at the Luau Bar.   Added to this is the jewelry, lots of bangles on both wrists add to both a tribal feel and a boho feel, both of which are on-trend.   The Cosmopolitan Sandals add more glitter which helps to pull the whole look together.

Beach Party Babe

Get ready to party on the beach with this cool beach babe look.

Beach Party Outfit

I'm not sure that any piece is really the stand out piece in this ensemble, the way it all comes together like is like an "I just pulled this on" look that actually took a while to plan!   I think the addition of the crochet shawl is what gives this look a very beachy, boho vibe.   If you lost the shawl then the outfit underneath would look much more like a clubbing outfit.

Unfortunately this particular top is out of stock and I can't find an alternative stockist at the moment, but there are a number of other white tops which would work really well like - this one in the white or even this one in white, alternatively you probably have a white top already that could work really well.

The lace up shorts round out the outfit and the jewelry brings it home.   Combine your favorite choker with a more delicate bolo necklace to get the featured jewelry look.
