Hurry up, jacket weather! Princess Anne's cropped trench is a timeless transitional staple I can't wait to pair with jeans and light knits

Anne, Princess Royal listens to members of the Royal Regiment of Scotland who will be performing at The Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo (not pictured).

After weeks of wearing nothing but summer dresses and sandals we're forecast to finally enjoy a break from the heat and I'm already thinking of autumn outfit ideas. The one wardrobe staple I've really missed wearing the most is jackets and Princess Anne has reminded us all that trenches are a brilliant transitional option.

We tend to think of them as a spring style, though they work for late summer/early autumn too and she wore hers in Scotland on 5th August. The Princess Royal, who's celebrating her 76th birthday on 15th, stepped out for The Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo rehearsal in a light beige trench that fell to hip-length.
