Over the past few weeks, I’ve noticed myself gravitating more and more towards all neutral looks. As I’m typically always on a bright-color kick, this recent shift in color palette preference has been somewhat amusing but so fun to play with. What has surprised me most is the fact that I already have had plenty of neutral pieces in my wardrobe… it’s just that I’ve never really paired them together all at once. In fact, I bet if you peeked into your closet you’d find the same thing.

What’s even more surprising is just how easy it is to put together an “effortlessly classic but looks like I spent a ton of time on this” look. The kicker? A classic trench. I hadn’t purchased one until recently because I assumed they were a little too mature – oh how wrong was I! I’ve already gotten so much use out of mine (I’m wearing a Zara kids style), and can’t recommend one enough to pull you through the first frosty months of “spring.” Pair it with these pastel jeans or these fun heels (in my dreams) to brighten it up! And while this mellowed out phase is fitting for February, fear not… I’ll be back again soon with plenty of color to spare! Have you noticed any new fashion phases of your own as of late? I’d love to know!

  3. I have been wearing LOTS of black! I think it is a mix of the weather and the easy-ness of the color that is drawing me to it as of late. Looking forward to bright spring colors :D

  10. Love this outfit! I got a trench coat from Banana Republic my freshman year of college and it was such a great investment!

    Question about blogging- how did you add the widget to the bottom of the post? Thanks!
