I know this trend is on the way out and all, but...

dude, what is with those model's arms?? anyway...i like the olive one better. i think the navy one looks too much like the military issue for some reason. it's just too something in the navy. and the olive would be easier to wear with more items. i have such a hard time using navy in my wardrobe even though i look at navy stuff all the time. so yeah, olive.

added later: looking at the pictures again...one more reason against navy...i really don't like navy with denim, any shade of denim (its just too monotone for me) and if jeans are what you wear most days then i would say double no on the navy.

I have to agree with relrlel on the color. It looks like those jackets would fade over time, which IMO is okay with the olive, but faded navy just looks...cheap to me.

I think it's actually cooler to wear a style when it's because *you* like it, rather than because it's on every celeb, starlet, and girl-on-the-street, so if you love the jacket, then go for it.

I am not really feeling the buttons on the jacket, and the arms seem too baggy to be flattering. I think you could find cuter military jackets for the price.
