Fashion Jobs – Spring Trench Coat

ST95-ADS

It’s finally here! This winter was so long and cold that it felt like this day would never come: trench coat season. Trench coats are a classic that continue to stand the test of time. They help finish off any outfit and will literally go with everything, which is my favourite part. Whether you like bold prints and colours or prefer a neutral style, there is a trench coat out there for you. I’m here to show you just how versatile the trench can be, so below are a few different outfits I have put together for you.

A neutral trench coat is always a great option because you can wear it for years and it will never go out of style. If you’re looking for the right coat to wear to work, a neutral colour is the best route to go. Not only will it go with everything in your closet, but it also keeps you looking polished and professional at all times.

Whether you’re going for a night out with friends or date night, the trench looks fabulous with a dress. This is the perfect time to have some fun and experiment with bold colours, so your jacket will stand out in any party. Add your favourite dress and a killer pair of heels and you’re good to go.

Trench coats don’t have to be for workwear or special occasions; they’re a great way to finish off any casual outfit too. Even if you’re running errands or walking the dog, a trench looks awesome paired with your go-to jeans. Because it is such a structured jacket, you can actually opt for less-structured bottoms while still looking put-together. Boyfriend jeans are huge this season and a great option, which I have paired here with a gorgeous red jacket.

1. Coach Classic Long Trench, $498

2. Lord and Taylor Steve Madden Cori Leather Side-Cutout Oxfords, $79

3. J.Crew Saint James for J.Crew Slouchy Tee, $108
