Style Staple: The Trench

Style Staple: The Trench

Living in SF has given us 1,001 reasons to buy more than our fair share of coats. The daily fog makes it impossible to leave the house in the morning without one. When we first moved here, we invested in a classic khaki trenchcoat from Banana Republic and haven’t regretted that decision since.

Nina Garcia at Marie Claire recently wrote that a trench coat is a wardrobe staple that is worth the extra $$ as an investment piece. Most trenches are timeless, while still offering the option of being a bit edgy. Below are a few of our faves that are hot for fall. As WhoWhatWear mentioned in a recent post, the trench is the perfect accessory to transition your wardrobe from summer to fall.

Bag it!

Bag it!

With all we’re expected to remember and do in a day, week, or month’s worth of time, it’s become almost essential that we make our life somewhat portable. Thankfully, there are a slew of wonderful large bags that can serve as our ‘carry alls’ when it comes to being WITs out in the world with our cell phones, planners, sunglasses, ipods, and anything else we can manage to fit!

This Juicy tote is a perfect color and can easily serve a WIT’s purposes from spring to fall! (Available at Neiman Marcus)

Ralph Lauren’s crocodile bag is essential for the working WIT as it exudes an upscale class that is business appropriate, but can easily take you from a day at the office to a night of cocktails! (Available at www.polo.com)

This bag from Hobo International is great for nights out or weekends spent browsing boutiques. It’s a gorgeous soft leather that makes it appropriate for evening, but with its classic hobo shape, you can throw this over your shoulder of any casual outfit! (Available at Nordstroms)

If you’re on a budget be sure to check out stores like Target that change their merchandise often and can often offer you up a decently-made bag that will last you at least a couple of seasons! Also be sure to check out Nordstrom stores and their website regularly as their sale prices can be fantastic for that Marc Jacobs bag you’ve been eyeing!
