A Trench Called Quest...

Do you have any idea how difficult it is to find a classic trench coat? I don't want bells and whistles - I just want the real deal. I know I'm shopping for this item rather late in the season - but Montreal weather be damned. You're hot - you're cold, and I can't keep up. Anyhoo - my quest has gone online. Probably something Rag and Bone? Hmm. Anyone have suggestions? Love this girl. She's my trench-spiration. Haha. Bis, The Glossy Ed.

YOU READ MY MIND. If it were up to me, my wardrobe would be 50% trench coats because I love them so much, but it is impossible to find one that is appropriate in style, quality, AND price.

My suggestion:

I was planning on a trench post myself soon - do you mind if I swipe the word "trenchspiration"? Haha.

I know how difficult it is to find the perfect trench. I "settled" on a version from the GAP last year b/c it was cheap and I thought it would satisfy my craving. Not really..I'm still looking. The trench the girl is wearing in this photo is basically what I want!

ahhh, I am totally with you! it's so hard to find a really simple, classy, yet stylish trench!! I have one from Zara, but this is obviously not the best quality. Patrizia pepe always has some great ones!!xx

Wendy - I think you're right! surprisingly reasonably priced too:) Thanks!

What about APC? The quality is great and finding that right shade of tan can be difficult but they always get it right season after season.

You've probably got the APC trench by now but, just in case, I saw it at Barney's today...on sale...40% off I believe...and I thought of you.

Burberry, of course. It is an investment piece.
