The Power of a Trench Coat
A wardrobe workhouse, a trench coat is not solely a spring staple, yet it’s certainly a must-have outerwear option to bridge the transition from winter into spring.
It’s the “third piece'“ you’ll throw on to add a classic feel to any outfit. The layer that never fails to make an otherwise simple ensemble feel timeless and chic. The style to reach for when you just don’t know what to wear. Relaxed yet sophisticated, a trench coat is truly a style staple you’ll wear forever.
For a casual closet, a drapey style with simple details always feels effortless and I often love an option without the fuss of things like extra buttons and buckles for a relaxed fit and feel. With a belt, there’s always the option to cinch the waist for extra shape.

A when-in-doubt trench coat combination? A tonal look (like white on white or all-black) looks chic paired with pointed toe flats and slingback heels, effortless paired with ballet flats and sporty paired with sneakers.
Though the power of a trench coat lies in its ability to layer over dresses both formal and casual just as easily.
