The Trench

Thank goodness for the Trench coat.

Timeless. Elegant. Up For Anything!

Invented by Thomas Burberry (the man behind the famous UK label) in 1901, this chic coat design has stood the test of time — and doesn’t look to be going out of fashion any time soon.

Wear it buttoned up over a mini dress with boots in winter or casually open over jeans in spring.

Choose monochromatic colours such as black, brown or cream for longer-lasting style.

Fashion Follower, Victim or Trend Setter

So which one are you?

Its easy to follow trends than to find your own style - but have you ever thought of the way you would really like to dress - its a scary thought, but one I wished more people had the courage to do!

I've been a follower with certain trends but now that I am in my mid thirties have decided that some things are better left to those of the tweens age group.

The 80's are currently creeping back in, and whilst I was only a little girl during this cooky fashion era - I would rather not participate in some of the out there designs that should have been left back in 1988!

So today - have a look in your wardrobe and decide - SO WHO AM I and what is my style.

Mine is eclectic - bits and peices of styles & pieces that never go out of fashion. Think nautical stripes - a classic trench - a tailored white shirt - you get my drift.
