"Are you a fashion assassin or a passionate fashion pacifist? From the
trench coat to the beret, fashion lovers continue to embrace military
chic. But what do these 'killer' threads really represent? Riding a constant wave of military chic on the catwalk and sidewalk,
fashionistas seem to be becoming increasingly apathetic about the
politics behind their combat-inspired outfits. Reflecting the
ever-present televised images of conflicts near and far, fashion design
has incorporated various elements of military apparel in almost every
season since 1999. Yet, few of us have ever questioned what wearing
these pieces mean to us mere civilians. With a colourful history veering
from statements of proud patriotism to stoic protest, military chic
carries a far more potent message then just cutting-edge style."
I am at a loss of words on what to say- call it writer's block but I reckon I've already exhausted explaining my love for Military-inspired fashion. So to save time, here's is one of my favorite songs, Vox Populi, by 30 Seconds to Mars, which was pretty much what influenced my outfit today.
This is a call to arms, gather soldiers
Time to go to war
This is a battle song, brothers and sisters
Time to go to war
Did you ever believe?
Were you ever a dreamer?
Ever imagine heart open and free?
Did you ever deny?
Were you ever a traitor?
Ever in love with your bloodless disease?
This is a call to arms, gather soldiers
Time to go to war
This is a battle song, brothers and sisters
Time to go to war
Ever want to be free?
Do you even remember?
Want to be God and devil like me?
Ever want to just stop?
Do you want to surrender?
Or fight for victory?
Here we are at the start, I can feel the beating of our hearts
Here we are at the start...
Darkness falls, here comes the rain to wash away the past and the names
Darkness falls, here comes the rain to end it all, the blood and the game
Far, far away in a land that time can't change
Long, long ago in a place of hearts and gold
Far, far away in a land that time can't change
Long, long ago in a place of hearts and gold
This is a call to arms, gather soliders
Time to go to war (Far, far away...)
This is a battle song, brothers and sisters
Time to go to war (Long, long ago...)
This is a call to arms, gather soliders
Time to go to war (Far, far away...)
This is a battle song, brothers and sisters
Time to go to war
This is a call to arms, way of the night
This is a battle song, way of the night
Time to go to war
This is a battle song, brothers and sisters
Time to go to war
Did you ever believe?
Were you ever a dreamer?
Ever imagine heart open and free?
Did you ever deny?
Were you ever a traitor?
Ever in love with your bloodless disease?
This is a call to arms, gather soldiers
