THE trench coat

When it comes to reinventing your wardrobe for Spring, one thing you're definitely going to want to purchase is a trench coat – oh, and it doesn't have to be an expensive one, either! I picked this classic colour and style from Primark for just £14! My original intention/ justification for buying it was for some interviews I was going on and wanted to look smart, but then I thought actually I'll wear this coat over and over again, for all different occasions. A trench coat is something that is so versatile, so you can dress it up to the nines as a cover up for when you go out for dinner or drinks or go oh-casual like this look I threw together.

It gives a sort of 'classically British' look to any outfit, but adding British favourite from the French – the Breton stripe just gives it even more of a wow factor! I absolutely love my Breton striped top from Joules that I'll probably have to buy a new one soon, it's getting worn so much… Next up to add to this look were casual jeans (also from Primark) and the classic shoe for Spring, the Converse – the blue ties in with the stripes in the top and the converse give a refreshing burst of white/ off white, depending how old yours are. The last thing to add to this look was my new favourite, everyday, shove everything in there, bag – this was also the bag I took for a couple of recent job interviews as I could easily squeeze my laptop in there for my gap in between them both. It's a great size and, as it's from ASOS, it's super well made, too.

Have a lovely weekend guys and gals, see you Monday at 8 am, sharp…
