The Trench Edit

I love a good coat and knowing I can justify purchasing a new one is always my favourite part of the weather changing.

When it’s still too chilly to venture outdoors sans coat and we’re always at risk of a lil rain, what better choice for spring than a trench coat?

I think I’ve always been a trench coat person. Although I’ve never really owned one before. There’s something about them that I love deep in my core. They’re just so chic. Effortlessly cool. Someone who wears trench coats is who I want to be. The girl with her life, and outfit, put together. So now I’m a Londoner, I finally decided to emulate this look I dream about. And it’s fun to pretend I’m that girl.

Trench coats have a classic style that can really bring a simple, basic look together. In these photos I’m wearing all black but the coat does all the talking!  Once I saw this trench I knew I needed it. I love the shape of this piece. With its big, poofy tie up sleeves and a tie belt waist to really cinch it in. Not to mention the cool lilac back which really adds a modern, updated twist to the classic trench style. Pastels for spring? Groundbreaking. But no wonder it’s been on my insta so much recently. I love it.

I’ve received so many compliments for this coat since I got it, so I figured it was worth eternalising in a dedicated post. But I’ve also selected a few other trenches below which I think are equally as beaut and would love to also own. But fear not, I’ll control myself for now…
