Khaki is Backi

Fashion has been reinvented and recycled for years. We've seen the resurgence of denim, 90's plaid, and even shoulder pads. Now with spring ending and summer right around the corner, it's khaki's turn to step back into the spotlight.

According to a recent New York Times article, khaki is back, but this isn't your father's khaki, this is khaki with an edge. The article noted designers like Unis and Guilded Age for creating fashionable and urban khaki suits, jackets, and blazers for men. Khaki is no longer just for yuppies, so should you get some? Yup.

Flashback: Check out this 1998 Gap ad for khakis. Wow, fashion has definitely come a long way...
