På jakt efter en perfekt trenchcoat.


Been looking for the perfect trench coat for a while now. Something light for spring/summer. I wanted something neutral in colour like black, grey or cream. I wanted something long as well and I was working on a pretty tight budget. I went to the shops about two weeks ago and tried a good few on but these were the ones that made the cut. Top left: H&M. This was probably my favourite one. It was only 299kr (€29.99) and it was the perfect length but unfortunately it was sold out in all sizes except a size 44(UK 16). The coat was kind of big on so I had to pull it in at the back to get a decent pic so needless to say, I didn't go home with it. Top Right: Monki. This one was on sale for 300kr but unfortunately it was also a bit too big as it was a M/L. That size would usually be ok but these were cut really big and I wasn't crazy about the colour anyways. Monki do have a version of this in Black called the Lana Blazer that costs about 600kr (€65) and it is gorgeous on but kind of over my budget right now. Bottom left: H&M. Part of the concious collection. A really gorgeous trench with a nice cut. It was about 499kr (€50) if I remember correctly. Bottom right: H&M. This one is actually mine from last year. H&M has basically released the same trench again with just a few tweaks and more colours. I decided that I wanted a bigger fit in the trench so I have mine up for sale on my ebay (titilolah) so I can buy the bigger size. Well that's it for trenchcoats. I tried a few more than these but at the end of the shopping trip I was so sick of trenchcoats and they started to look like lab coats to me. I was pretty narrow on my search because I was on a budget but Topshop, Weekday, Asos , River Island and & Other stories are all pretty good places to look depending on your budget. xx
