Every wardrobe should include a trench coat. Cover-ups don’t get more timeless than the beige button-down, and if you invest in one now, it will look chic and work very hard all year round.
Despite the fact that the best trench coats have an effortlessly smart and polished feel, many people keep theirs strictly for daytime wear, and will often switch out their belted piece for something a little dressier for after hours. There is no reason to do this, though, as your heritage style staple can absolutely work over a party dress or layered up with a sheer blouse and velvet trouser combination – and if you don’t believe me, take a look at Amanda Seyfried’s latest red carpet look. The actress wowed while at the Golden Globes cocktail party in London, wearing a chic knitted Burberry dress and heavy black boots, and added a Burberry trench coat over the top, which pulled her high-meets-low ensemble together beautifully.
