So, the weather has started to warm up a lot and it is actually going to be in the 50s next week; currently, the temps is in the upper 30s to 40s and it's definitely time to get out the trench coats and lighter jackets. This Khaki trench coat is an Ivanka Trump brand and it's an old purchase from Nordstrom. I like the beautiful intricate details on the coat like the bows on the sleeves and the folded inseams at the back and the contrast color lapels; definitely a well tailored trench coat. I paired it with a white tee and black denim and green velvet pumps blogged about HERE. The pumps appear to be black in these pics due to the pics quality but they are actually dark green and gave a nice contrast to the coat; speaking of which; I'm quite aware of all the controversy surrounding the Ivanka Trump brand right now and although this is not a political blog but I'll just give my two cents on the matter here.
In as much as I support business decisions made by stores and their right to stop carrying items that do not sell, I also believe it is not a good idea to snub Ivanka Trump's brand because of her Dad's attitude. I follow Ivanka Trump on Instagram and I love her family commitment and her entrepreneurial skills and she really makes beautiful clothing and shoes because I have a couple of items from her brand in my closet right now. I know everyone has the right to make whatever decisions they choose to but the Christianly thing to do is to move on and pray for everyone including your enemies and show them love when you can. I know this is a very hard and sensitive issue..."Anywho," I am on a shopping freeze right now so, I won't be buying any item from Nordstrom or any other store that is involved with this controversy but I'll gladly wear and blog about her clothing that I already purchased a while back. Hmmm**clears throat** what say you? 🙆
