[Military fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ukrainian-brand-rbtnk) is all the rage this spring with army-inspired garb popping up on the pages of every magazine. Now the [Elle Canada](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/reversa-hydra-mineral-concentrate) March 2010 issue is bringing back khaki and [camouflage](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/realtreepack) all at once.

Blonde bombshell Jessiann Gravel-Beland works army-green shorts, ankle socks and utility-inspired strappy sandals. The shoot incorporates tomboyish style with sophistication in clean lines and neutral shades. And how can you miss the peroxide pouf done just right to add a little high-fashion style?
