To kick off the new fall season, I wanted to share a few tips for varying your outfits while using a timeless piece of your wardrobe, namely the trench coat.
A mid-season staple, the trench has held a special place in my wardrobe for years. Indestructible whatever the weather, it’s always been a welcome addition to my wardrobe, bringing that “je ne sais quoi” of “Parisian Attitude” to my outfits.
Whether worn with a dress or thrown nonchalantly over the shoulders with jeans, this timeless piece goes with everything and any occasion. Chic or casual, your look will be all the more elegant with a trench coat over it.
Personally, I’ve long been on the hunt for the perfect trench coat. Whether beige or colored, shorter or longer, with or without epaulets, I ended my quest at the entrance to my grandmother’s closet. Some may smile when they say that I do indeed have an old-age style, but I can assure you that it’s often in the drawers of old-timers that the best discoveries are made!
Don’t get me wrong, this magnificent Burberry trench coat, or more specifically the Heritage Waterloo model, remains the centerpiece of my coat collection. Timeless, as I said. It’s been on sale ever since my grandmother bought it in the ’80s!
So if you’re looking for models similar to this one, here’s a small selection at more affordable prices.
