DARE TO DRESS UP A BOMBER JACKET

How to recreate a cool Alexander Wang Runway look without spending a boatload.


Fancy pants are not the first pairing that comes to mind when brainstorming the perfect complement to your sporty-cool bomber jacket. Leave it to mix-and-match master Alexander Wang to team a casual jacket with dress pants.  Make the combo work for you by keeping the individual pieces neutral, relying on a sleek accessory for the sole pop of color.
Here, I show you how to shop the runway look without blowing through your savings.

THE JACKET...
Topshop Jacker, $85






At $85, this classic jacket is a useful and easily justifiable purchase. Layer it over heavier knits for warmth or use in lieu of a cardigan under coats.














THE TROUSERS...
Zara Trousers, $70



Slim-cut black pants are essential to any woman's wardrobe. Bonus points for a playfully cropped fit. 










THE CLUTCH...
Nast Gal "Boss Lady" Clutch, $48




What's better than a punchy blue clutch? One that's adorned with a blink-or-you'll-miss-it "Boss Lady" stamp, that's what! 










THE SANDAL...
Steve Madden Sandal, $80





A delicate ankle strap adds polish to an otherwise edgy shoe. 









THE MAKEUP...
Stila Dare to Bare Palette, $20





Neutrals are always a safe bet. The earthy shades in this palette complement any ensemble.
