As a “fashion girl,” I have a running checklist of my must-have “forever pieces,” ones that truly stand the test of time. This checklist includes classic splurge-worthy items, i.e. Chanel flap bag or a Cartier Tank Watch. Before I go into detail about one specific item on my checklist that I bought and love, a fun fact that you should know about me is that I hate the rain. In my opinion, the smallest drizzle warrants a $40 Uber home from work. Unfortunately, those Ubers add up, so I knew it was time to invest my money a bit more wisely. This leads us to one of the top items on my “forever pieces” list, a classic trench coat.
A great trench will never go out of style, and it will stay in your wardrobe forever. The reason a trench coat has remained such a staple is its versatility; it can make the simplest outfits look put together. When I’m feeling lazy, I let the coat do the talking by pairing it with a T-shirt, baggy jeans and sneakers. I can wear the trench open for a laidback look, or belt it and cinch it in at the waist to create a ladylike feel. It transitions from day to night with ease and, because it is the perfect weight, from summer to fall and winter to spring, too. Below are 10 trench coats that we love.
