#trendalert Has anyone else noticed the number of olive green parkas on campus has basically tripled this week? I personally find this completely acceptable. These parkas are so versatile; anyone can wear one! These three girls prove that a parka can match any individual style, whether it’s grunge, casual, or preppy. My favorite way to wear an olive green parka is with dark wash skinny jeans and combat boots but I’m loving the way these girls wore it too!
Eva Kennedy (SED ’17), pictured left, is pairing her Urban Outfitters parka with maroon jeans and Doc Marten combat boots, giving off a cool grungy vibe. Sara Tabibzadeh (SHA ’16), pictured in the middle, is wearing a chunky black scarf and white converse with her Kaitlyn olive green parka, completing her casual yet adorable look. Harper Schimdt (COM ’14), pictured right, is looking effortlessly chic in her Vince Camuto parka and nude ballet flats.
Are you already halfway out the door and running to Newbury Street to try and find an olive green parka? I would try Forever 21: http://www.forever21.com/Product/Product.aspx?BR=f21&Category=outerwear_utility-jackets&ProductID=2030187336&VariantID
