Keeping it simple with this outfit- ย very edgy, trendy and classy with white. I’m starting to love the all-white ensemble, adding this look ย to my list of minimalist looks. I’m wearing a beautiful ย high-low lace skirt, I’ve always loved ย the final product of using lace fabrics when I ย get my clothes tailored.
ย This duster coat – love, love, love.I’m at the point where
I’m starting to see how important it is to invest wisely in the the items I shop for. Do you feel that way too guys? And as I’m putting this into practice, It makes me feel good about the items I buy and less guilty because I’m positive they’ll be lasting me a ย loong while. ย I’ve linked where to pick this coat up right away
All I know is this coat is going to be hanging around for a long time (That’s how you want to invest in your pieces). That way I don’t feel like I have unnecessary things in my closet.

I love the touches of white on an outfit it adds elegance, confidence ย and uniqueness to your look. I did it with my favorite pair of glasses too.
ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย A classic trench coat is always in vogue, therefore is a necessity. I love a good duster coat, it’s perfect for all seasons depending on how you wear it. ย It’s super light and soft. It is also very functional and versatile.ย These are what you should look out for when picking out essential wardrobe staples. In addition to choosing a ย versatile,classic and functional coat, picking out a color that goes with a lot of your other clothes is as important. And so far I must say this piece works for me. I like unique colors ย and its getting warm, so I went a little vibrant and it works perfect. While its getting hot we experience cooler temperature at night and ย instead of throwing the ‘traditional’ blazer, you can switch things up by wearing this light duster coat.
Here are quick tips on finding a classic
ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย
Length and Fit
Choosing ย the right length and fit to suit your style is as important. I like to go two sizes above my actual size as I enjoy rocking the oversize look. I also have studied my body enough by wearing a lot of similar oversize looks to know what works best on me. Now ย as that may be the case, this may not look as flattering on someone else, the same way some fitted coats don’t look as flattering on me. So I suggest you look at the mirror again, try fitting other sizes and make a honest decision before leaving the store. It’ll save you a lot. Regarding lengths, depending on the type and style ย of coat, I go at least 2 inches below my knee,

Material
Quality is important with the coats, I keep learning this everyday. If you are like me who is going to wearing the life out the coat, invest in a 90-100 (quality speaking). And ย as a reminder you’ll find affordable selections at a thrift store.
What do you guys think?
