More trench love

 love the unstructured flowy look of this khaki / tan trench coat...
 the back flap is a cool detail, in addition to the shoulder and cuff straps...
and the amber coloured buttons are pretty retro cool...

Elegant: putty trench

love the elegance of this early to mid 20th-century inspired putty coloured trench coat...
is it really putty grey or is it a stone, cream, oyster, mushroom, ecru or ivory colour?
would look cute over this retro black floral dress in a 1930s / 1940s way...
and these oversized crystal sunglasses...
black chelsea boots...
or these Superga grey hightops / high top sneakers...
this one isn't bad either, though shorter and with a 1980s flair...
The look was inspired by Melanie Griffith in her ivory trench coat for film Shining Through.
Or this one worn by Audrey Hepburn as Holly Golightly in Breakfast at Tiffany's in 1961.
this amber roses necklace would look really cute...
as would this ivory enamel bamboo bangle...

Crushing: long beige coat

loving how this long beige / cream / ivory coat drapes -- tall cool drink... Quite elegant!
these beige crisscross sandals...
and it would look quite elegant with these ivory sunglasses...
Retro rounded ivory bone beige sunglasses
Straw half moon bag
Bone bangle

Cuddly things: blue rose coat

 love the cut out rose pattern of this turquoise blue mid-length coat...
even if it reminds me just a tad of a dressing gown. Still cute!
Oversized round turquoise jelly gogo sunglasses
and because turquoise needs to be paired with pink, these sakura pink converse sneakers...

and for contrast I would team these red suede mules...
and it would look kinda cute with this blue floral scarf...
this pink floral scarf...

or maybe even this aqua sakura cherry blossom floral scarf that has deep turquoise in it...
Pink oversized gogo sunglasses
and these deep Chrysocolla beads...
and ELF Classy lipstick...

Cute Stuff: sakura leggings

 I know it's autumn but I thinking of cherry blossoms...
 they'd look great with an oversized shirt or tunic...
gorgeous cherry blossom leggings!
and to be teamed with this pink sweatshirt...
this pink denim jacket I dyed and then bleached...
and on the right lapel is this sakura brooch...
or even this little lilac moto jacket...
these pink heart sunnies...
or these pink mirror lens sunglasses...
and sakura pink converse sneakers...
or these pink oxford shoes...
ELF Classy lipstick...
and knocking back this lilac pink Ramune sakura drink just because...
