The exotic bomber.

Nothing pumps up an outfit more than a colourful bomber jacket and mine was a fine bargain! Every single time I wear this style jacket I get compliments from the elderly women, to the teens, to the classy gents, they all love it! And I'll let you in on a little secret... It was £5 from Primark! This bomber has a silky texture with hints of Japanese patterns mixed with tattoo style colours and I must say that it is one of my favourite things to wear. Pairing exotic bomber jackets with other items can be quite difficult but I find that if you pick out some of the colours from the patterns and see if you can match them with a strappy top and skirt then it works perfectly! I often wear a lot of reds with my bomber as I feel that it fits in well with the Japanese theme. You can literally pick up one of these jackets from anywhere but the hard part is finding the pattern that you like the most as there are so many! The key is thinking about what you could pair with it such as if it had hints of blue then denim would look super stylish! Even though I found my brilliant bomber in Primarni, vintage bombers are also tres stylish and very retro! These literally work with anything because they look casual but then again unusual so it really will make your outfit stand out. I can guarantee that if you own a vintage bomber then you will never awkwardly meet anyone in the street and have to give them that gaze because they have stolen your look! And there you have it the classic bomber. Now I am fairly certain that my way of explaining why it is called the bomber jacket is because it came around as a fashion statement during the World Wars (well maybe not just a fashion statement, it could have just been to keep the men warm hey ho) and obviously there were quite a lot of bomb explosions happening during that time so that is where the glorious name came from! I believe it was the dashing males in the Royal air force that wore these style jackets at the time but even if it wasn't, War time fashion was truly revolutionary and most definitely one of my favourite era's of all time. 

P.s I do understand that I went from talking about Primark to the War but just roll with it, happy reading!
