Vintage trench coat + denim

 

         Ͳhe weather in Minneapolis is warming up and calls now for light dusters and trench coats. This outfit is what I wore a few days ago. The trench coat is a vintage piece I got from a consignment shop in my neighborhood years ago. I love the somewhat puffy sleeves which is a nod to the puffy sleeves trend this season. The khaki or green color makes it a statement trench coat suited for many seasons.

 I threw it over a white fitted long sleeve tee and light blue denim and accessorized with a multi color bag and this off white color ankle boots that is an old purchase from Asos.  I love the unusual heels on the boots; it looks like a wine cork. How is the spring season going where you are? There is so much going on in the world right now and I really appreciate you for taking the time to stop by here. Thanks so much for reading.
