In the Trenches

May 9th, 2012

Celine Sunglasses, Burberry Trench, Dries Van Noten Heels, Estée Lauder ‘Stay Scarlet’ Lipstick

When we first decided to go to Italy after our wedding, I started saving up for what I deemed my “honeymoon purchase.” I didn’t know what that item would be, but I wanted to find something that would be classic, versatile, and that I could wear for years and years. I found this coat in Florence and love its edgy take on typical trench coat, but with a timeless shape.

    I love that trench – when I visited Florence with my family 6 years ago, a man who designed leather jackets for Hilary Clinton was sitting next to us and shared some Asti Spumanti. If I ever go back I’m definitely buying one of his coats!
