Trench Take One: Preppy

Outfit: Trench Coat - Zara; Floral Dress and Shoes - Topshop; Bag - Vintage


Following on from my last post - trench inspiration, I have decided to post a few different outfits focusing on the trench coat to display just how versatile this item is for your wardrobe. For look number one, I have chosen to go for the 'preppy' look, pairing it with a simple floral summer dress, matching shoes and a ribbon in my hair. The ultimate accessory for this look - an old vintage bicycle (with basket) to cycle around town in of course!

I am obsessed with trench coats - I remember the first one I ever bought was a black one from H&M, but I'm hoping to invest in a classic Burberry someday. ("Someday" being the operative word.) I love the way you've styled it here - the bright dress, cute hair ribbon and adorable vintage bag are simply perfect!!
