Packing Essentials: Trenchcoat Season

Written by Katja 6 April 2010 No Comment

What’s the weather like when you look outside your window? Sunny? Windy? Rain? Or maybe all of the above? Living in Berlin I’m voting for the latter and from experience I know that places like London, Prague or New York are similar around this time of year. It is hence a good idea to choose your wardrobe carefully when traveling this season. Personally I am rooting for the trench coat – a timeless and internationally acnowledged all-rounder that keep you dry when it’s raining and warm on chilly spring-nights.

These days I am running up and down the high street to find the perfect trench coat (that is not from Burberry costing 1000-something Euros) and so far I havtn quite fopund the right one. To help you and me deciding, I’ve made a little collection introducing some of my favorite models found online.

below €50

1.  Liking color? This pale blue military mac has just that and is available at debenhams.com for 55EUR.
2. With an air of the 60′s comes along this navy piped detail trench coat – debenhams.com 68EUR. would have looked good on Twiggy and will likely look good on me you.
3. Possibly my favorite trench out of this selection is this Femme Wrap Mac to be had for and affordable 54EUR on oli.co.uk
