How To: A Twist on the Trench

After our last post on trench coats, we received some questions asking for some easy-to-wear styles to look out for, apart from your average classic camel styles.  We pulled together a couple of examples for your consideration.


1. The Bright Trench - a trench like this is born to be brought out and shown off at night; it immediately brings any average "night on the town" dress up several notches and is bound to steal the spotlight from any other women so that all eyes remain on you!

2. The Printed Trench - this trench coat is best worn as a "statement" piece.  Pair it with a casual tee, jeans and flats on the weekend or with an LBD and pumps for the work week, and let the coat speak for itself!

3. The Mixed-Media Trench - This is a truly modern take on a classic wardrobe staple.  Look for a mix of materials such as cotton and silk, denim and wool, nylon and sequins or, such as the example below, poplin and leather.  Any mix of textures is bound to easily update your look with a bit of edge while still remaining classically chic.

 4. The Navy Blazer - A nice alternative to classic camel, this trench is classy and sophisticated without being predictable.  It's so easy to dress up or down and fits seamlessly into any woman's wardrobe.
