When I was younger my Meemaw would buy my sister and me London Fog trench coats every winterĀ so naturally, I have a keen liking for the classic touch they add to any outfit. There’s an element of sophistication that a double breasted trench in any neutral color provides to create a simple statement.
I’ve been so anxious to wear this but Houston doesn’t have much of a winter. When the temperature dropped into the 60’s, I took it as the perfect opportunity to throw this on over denim and a long sleeve ribbed crew-neck. ToĀ be honest, even if Ā it wouldn’t have cooled off IĀ would’ve forced myself to thug it out in 80 degree weather. This particular oversized coat has more of a masculine cargo feel to it so I prefer it with a more casual look, as opposed to anything dainty like a dress or skirt. I can even pair itĀ with yoga pants and running shoes if I want to fool people into thinking that I’m any type of athletic. By the way, orange + olive is forever my go-to combo.

Wear it while you can Paula! LOL I’ll be keeping them coming pretty consistently, so thank you for reading! š
I have been drooling over your style and wardrobe since I found you on Instagram. I live outside of Philadelphia so the weather right now has me in some ugly boots and a big goofy coat… Blah.
I love the neutral colors which I am going to start giving a chance, I’ve always been into shades of black, grey and more black. Might be a NorthEast thing. Looking forward to what you have in store for us.
Kudos doll xo
