One of the pieces I rediscovered during my recent closet clean out was this navy trench coat (last worn here). I get so bored with my outerwear this time of year so I try to rotate which coat I’m wearing at least a couple times a week. My warmest options are this cocoon coat and my puffer coat but I made this lightweight trench appropriate for temperatures in the high 30s with a warm sweater underneath and my favorite plaid scarf. I also swapped out my usual dark denim for white skinny jeans and suddenly felt like I had a totally different winter look. I’ll definitely be trying the same with my other outerwear options (this and this).

Goodnight Macaroon pearl studs c/o  //  Kate Spade navy trench coat (similar)  //  Lands End plaid scarf  //  Signet ring  //  Clare Vivier flat clutch  //  Lilly Pulitzer white jeans  //  J.Crew Rory ankle boots (similar)

I kept the accessories to my everyday basics: a signet ring that was a gift from my cousin Emily, a favorite clutch that goes with everything in my wardrobe, and ankle boots that share a name with my puppy Rory. Do you have a favorite navy trench coat (or one in a different color)? Would you wear white jeans in winter?
