Miami Trench


Blouse: Zara (similar here), Jeans: Gap (here), Shoes: Sam Edelman (here), Brooch; Swarovski (similar here), Necklace: old

I'm a Miami girl - always have been and always will be. I love everything about this town, except the fact that wearing a trench coat is usually out of the question unless you want to end up with a heat stroke. For me, trench coats are an easy way to add a bit of polish to the most basic of outfits. They were a definite go to item for me when I lived in a colder climate. So, imagine my excitement when I saw this cute sleeveless trench coat from Forever 21. It gives off almost the same effect as a traditional trench, but is light weight and Miami-friendly.

I also added a brooch to the lapel. No joke people, I LOOVE brooches. Please keep me away from your grandma's jewels because I will clean her out with no remorse.
