When all else fails, put on a trench. Truly. It's the one item in my wardrobe that I go to again and again ... especially if I'm in a hurry and I know I don't look my best, I grab my trench and everything becomes OK. The trench slims us down, and piques curiosity about what might be underneath. This black trench is one I've had forever and I love pairing it with boots.
Here's another favorite trench of mine ... one that I can wear in warmer weather, with its 3/4-length sleeves and cute front ruffles. Pumps or strappy sandles are what I pair it with.
Here's a different kind of babydoll trench. I like to pair it with ruffly socks and oxfords with a chunky heel.
So now it's your turn. Show us how you wear your trench coat by creating a post on your blog and then linking here by leaving a comment. Deadline: June 1, 2011. For those of you who love to alter clothing, would love to see how you alter your trench. Happy Art of the Dress. :)

what fun! I don't own a trench coat -- but I'm sure wishing I had one like the babydoll - that lace at the bottom is awesome!!!
