Da Bomb(er Jackets)

Now that I've moved from the steamy South to the frigid North, I can really see the importance of an easy jacket. Bombers have been everywhere as of late, and they are a super simple way to spice up your everyday wardrobe. Most people have probably had a plain black bomber in their wardrobe at some point or another in their personal fashion history, but there is so much more to bomber than just plain black leather! If you want to try out bomber jackets but are tired of the same old solid black look, I am right there with you. Let's check out some different ways for bombers to blow up your wardrobe!

Now if you're really looking to run from your boring, basic, bomber, this Adidas Originals piece is the jacket for you. No part of this coat is basic. From the bright color to the elaborate Baroque Ornament print, everything about this look is unique. The athletic aesthetic of Adidas combined with the eclectic colors and patterns of this coat makes for a seriously fashionable and eye-catching work of art. If you want to add this coat to your collection, you can pick it up for a cool $168.

If you are not quite brave enough to snag that Adidas Originals, try changing up textures instead of print! Most bombers come in either a leather-like or windbreaker-esque fabric. In this ASOS Suede Bomber With Contrast Rib, we're still sticking to leather, but headed in a softer direction instead. Your typical smooth, black leather can come off as a very strong, edgy look. If you're looking for a sturdy leather coat but don't want to be quite as a intense as your classic black leather look, try this suede number out! You get the jacket online for $126.

If you are lucky enough to live somewhere where having a real coat isn't really that serious, then this next look is for you. This Seafolly Hope Springs Lace Beach Bomber Jacket is light and breezy and perfect for warm weather. The delicate lace detailing is perfectly balance with the tougher bomber silhouette, and makes for a dynamic and dazzling piece. Perfect for anything from running errands to a girls night out on the town, you can make this glamorous jacket yours for $161.

Now some say military chic is on its way out, but I say guess again! More subtle uses of the military trend have been found in plenty of fashion lines as of late, including none other than Kanye West's Yeezy line. An ode to Kanye's line, this New Look Fur Bomber Jacket is brining the military fashion trend back in a brilliant way. The army green silky exterior combined with the bright orange interior is reminiscent of camouflage attire, with the gold hardware details and fur collar trim adds an air of class and elegance. This bomber is perfect for the more low-key fashionistas in your life; understated, yet absolutely glamorous. You can grab this jacket for $72.

Don't be afraid to mix up your look with some funky bombers! This classic coat style is here to stay, and I can't wait to see all the fun ways people will keep it fresh and exciting.
