For years I stayed away from the classic trench coat in beige (it is not my color). In the past few seasons, there have been so many fantastic iterations and combinations I couldn't take it anymore. I finally cracked with a cropped COS trench a couple of seasons back. I've been using lipstick and accessories that complement my skin tone to brighten the look. If a piece in the wrong color is speaking to you, try a little smoke and mirrors 😬😜. It works every time. LTKFind LTKstyletip LTKSeasonal
