SPRING STYLE // FASHION


THE CLASSIC TRENCH COAT

The Trench coat, a almost iconic coat that has been worn by so many from actors in films to everyday people. Think of Bogie in Casablanca, or Deneuve .  Its a love affair and one can understand why.

If you think about it the trench coat is a very versatile coat, wearing it with slacks, jeans or even a pair of jogging pants to   dresses.


I have one that is vintage with a wool liner, the shade is not the best on me.  So finding a newer one was a option. I found a  nice one in a nice caramel shade, not to light or dark.  It is the classic double breasted with the belt , but without the shoulder epaulets which I like, a more streamline look.




STYLE OPTIONS

Going CASUAL : wearing with a simple striped shirt, jeans and ballet flats.
or later with those jogging pants

For a more dressier look a nice tweed dress or knit dress  there a endless ways to 
style a trench coat. 

You can always add some spark with some colour whether a purse , shoes or your choice of outfit.   







So are you a  Trench Coat lover?

CASUAL SUMMER LOOK//fashion , styling

 Doing Denim  I sometimes like to wear something that is just more relaxed and comfortable.  For some it might be a pair of shorts, but I like a dress. Whether long or short.  I just them more comfortable and airy on hot summer days.  Denim is one look I like . It’s a casual look that can be dressed up or down, just by changing the accessories you wear with it.  Heels or sandal. Simple jewelry, watch or bracelets.  There are so many ways to style a denim dress.  A great tote to carry the necessary items, sandals and sunglasses  I would add a nice colorful scarf for the hair or simply wear tied around the neck. 

Favorite Things 2023//fashion , items

 Favorite things  I really didn’t go overboard with any purchases in 2023.  Trying to keep to the sustainable fashion idea  of shopping my closet or using what I have .  Mind you there were somethings I thought about getting like a new pair of sunglasses, some shoes  sandals, new purse , but I still need new sunglasses. My old pair has some scratches on them sadly.  The two pieces I did get I absolutely love . Firstly a linen blend blazer in cream shade. It goes with so many things so can’t wait to spring to wear it again.  Also the new wrap dress I bought in spring.  The color I loved , the fit and style is nice to wear for dinners out, parties or weddings. A very versatile piece.   The other item was from a previous year but I had forgotten about it  was a nice surprise. I wore it over Christmas holidays. and got compliments on it . A knit top with sparkle accents.  It was so comfortable and warm . Absolutely loved it.  ...
