The main focus of this post is this gorgeous trench dress from Ann Taylor.
My favorite season for fashion is right around the corner, and I am slowly gathering everything for my shopping list. The stack of pages I ripped out of my glossies is very thick this year. My first purchase of the season HAD to be this trench dress. A classic trench is one of the man pieces you need to pull off a cool/chic look. For my first look with this dress, I didn’t want to add a ton of color, because again, the trench is so classic and almost doesn’t need color. When I wear it again, of course I’ll play around with its potential.
The main reason I bought this dress is because when you unbutton it, it makes the perfect sleeveless trench coat! I CANT WAIT to layer it with all my fall looks! I could have gotten the dress in a smaller size, but once the layering starts, I will need more room. I also enjoyed 40% off so that helped in that decision. 🙂 I paired the dress with black pumps to give it a more office/city sleek feel. But….when you’re in a hurry or being casual….
T-strap flats are the way to go!! These flats are not super casual, but don’t take anything away from the dress. I sometimes know when I will be doing a ton of running around at work so heels are not the best choice. These flats were only $23 on sale from Aldo. Unfortunately not available anymore online, this option is just as perfect.
PS. I wore my bordeaux skinnies today. No shame. Which you already know if you follow me on Instagram…and if not..you should! 😛
