A Military Thrifty Thursday

I love the contrast of pairing military and feminine styles.

Luckily the dude held on to his field jacket & sweater from his conscripted time in the Bundeswehr (the German military finally ended the draft in 2011) so I don’t have to spend a cent when I need to top off an outfit with some authentic army gear!

Awesome bonus: the jacket is embroidered with my name!

Knit Hat (handmade gift) €0 – Scarf (thrifted) €0.50 – Vintage German Military Field Jacket (stolen from the dude) €0 – Vintage German Military Sweater (stolen from the dude) €0 – Vintage Driving Gloves (inherited) €0 – Adorable Chiffon Dress (thrifted) €2 – Betsey Johnson Leggings (thrifted, new in the package!) €1 – Wool Socks (handmade gift) €0 – Boots (had for years) €0

Total outfit cost: €3.50

    1. Cheers Karen – I used your freezer trick to get the musty storage smell out of the sweater 😀
