Been looking for the perfect trench coat for a while now. Something light for spring/summer. I wanted something neutral in colour like black, grey or cream. I wanted something long as well and I was working on a pretty tight budget. I went to the shops about two weeks ago and tried a good few on but these were the ones that made the cut.
Top left: H&M. This was probably my favourite one. It was only 299kr (€29.99) and it was the perfect length but unfortunately it was sold out in all sizes except a size 44(UK 16). The coat was kind of big on so I had to pull it in at the back to get a decent pic so needless to say, I didn't go home with it.
Top Right: Monki. This one was on sale for 300kr but unfortunately it was also a bit too big as it was a M/L. That size would usually be ok but these were cut really big and I wasn't crazy about the colour anyways. Monki do have a version of this in Black called the Lana Blazer that costs about 600kr (€65) and it is gorgeous on but kind of over my budget right now.
Bottom left: H&M. Part of the concious collection. A really gorgeous trench with a nice cut. It was about 499kr (€50) if I remember correctly.
Bottom right: H&M. This one is actually mine from last year. H&M has basically released the same trench again with just a few tweaks and more colours. I decided that I wanted a bigger fit in the trench so I have mine up for sale on my ebay (titilolah) so I can buy the bigger size.
Well that's it for trenchcoats. I tried a few more than these but at the end of the shopping trip I was so sick of trenchcoats and they started to look like lab coats to me. I was pretty narrow on my search because I was on a budget but Topshop, Weekday, Asos , River Island and & Other stories are all pretty good places to look depending on your budget. xx
So squinty and serious!
It was a lovely spring day in Malmö today. Nice and sunny but still cold so I had my winter coat on. The hat and trousers are vintage and the shoes are deena and ozzy from urbanoutfitters. You can find them HERE &
Ps: I think my pictures are getting a bit better? Slowly but surely haha.
These pictures were taken about 2 weeks ago but I forgot to put them up. Whoops! Anyways better late than never. The coat is an awesome vintage coat I found in January. Really well made and an eleant 90's feel to it. It was actually new and still had the 90's tags on which is always a bonus.
I was initially going to sell it because I didn't really think that a long coat would suit me but then I tried it on and decided to keep it. Oops.
The wide pants are also vintage another highwaisted hidden gem. The combination of long trousers and a long coat makes me look about 4ft tall but this was a very comfortable outfit for a quick coffee in town. Xx
