It may not quite feel like it yet depending on where you are but spring is just around the corner. In preparation for the Spring 2015 GYPO Style Challenge, I’m starting a series each Friday featuring a different spring essential to add to your wardrobe.
Our first week is all about the trench. It’s no secret that I’m slightly obsessed with trench coats and here’s why:
Three Reasons Why Trench Coats are a Spring Essential
- They will never, ever go out of style. A good trench coat lasts forever.
- They’re incredibly versatile and can be worn with skinny jeans and flats, dresses and heels or anything in between.
- They pull together any look and add a touch of chic like nothing else can.
Whether you go with traditional khaki or experiment with color and pattern, you just can’t go wrong. Here are a few ways that I styled my trench coat collection last year.
