What do you wear when it is early Fall and it’s cool in the mornings, but during the day it is warm? You wear outfits that transition between seasons. You may be asking, “But what outfits do I wear?” The key is to wear a lightweight top and bottoms, wear shoes that work in both cool and warm weather, then wear a layer you can remove when it gets warm. Let me show you how…
The Layer: A Trench Coat
A trench coat is a classic and timeless piece that works well as the weather cools. Trench coats are popular in the Fall and Spring. If you live in climate with mild Falls, Winters and Springs, you may can wear a trench coat nearly all year. Trench coats come in several lengths: cropped, hip length, knee length and mid calf length. They also come in a wide variety of colors, khaki beige being the most popular color. The cropped length is trending for the Fall season! Here is the featured trench coat in this post (I have this exact trench coat in my closet and LOVE it! I highly recommend it). I also recommend this Short Trench Coat and this MidThigh Trench Coat at Quince!
Here is an interesting article, “The History of the Trench Coat” from Gloverall. Also, check out “How to Actually Wear Your Trench Coat This Fall (Without Feeling Like Inspector Gadget)” on The Everymom.
