A classic trench coat can make even the most basic of outfits look super chic. I love pairing mine with neutrals like black, white, and even denim for an easy effortless outfit. Read on to get my tips for styling a trench coat this spring.
Outfit Details: Coach Trench Coat (similar here), Madewell T-shrit, H&M Jeans, Modmopolitan Purse, Necklace & Earrings c/o, Bracelets (similar here, here, and here), Elie Tahari Shoes (similar here, here, & here), G Belt
T-Shirt
Try layering a trench coat over your favorite t-shirt. This one from Madewell is my current favorite, last seen here. Mixing casual & dressy piece together make for a casual yet polished outfit. This tip also works well for layering a blazer over a t-shirt.
Jeans
It goes without saying that jeans go with just about anything! Wearing a trench coat with your favorite t-shirt & jeans is a foolproof recipe for a chic outfit. Right now I’m loving high waisted, wide leg, cutoff denim. These jeans also come in white and dark blue, plus they are less tan $30 and so comfy!
Cap-Toe Shoes
When it comes to shoes, my favorite thing to wear with a trench coat is a classic pair of cap-toe heels similar here, here, & here. Not only do they look great together, but I love how these shoes look with denim too.
Accessories
Lastly, add in a few of your favorite accessories to complete the look. This v-neck t-shrit is the perfect backdrop for showing off a necklace like this one. A classic black leather belt pairs nicely with high waisted jeans, and a unique bag in a neutral color adds in some much needed interest. Also, I love how shells are making a comeback! The two I’m wearing are a necklace and anklet I already had from the early 2000’s, but I also like this one, this one, and this one.

Thank you so much Des! I absolutely LOVE mixing casual & dressy pieces together. I feel like that gives them 2x the wear and it makes for a much more unique outfit. And I know right? Who knew shells would ever make a comeback? 😉
