It’s allegedly spring. However, for every minute of sunshine, there seems to be an hour of rain and gloom. So while I’d love to wear lighter spring pieces, it’s time to bring on the layers.

And just like that, it’s April. Summer is almost upon us, and the retailers are filled with linen wares. Now, you know that I am usually unwilling to wear linen to work due to the wrinkles. But in this post-pandemic world, perhaps my mind can change.

Since Sloane was born, I’ve fallen hard into a black, white, and blue wardrobe. This is not necessarily a bad thing, but as spring blooms, I need a little color in my wardrobe (and probably a little print too). Here are a few tops that caught my eye for work.

I got a great trench at the Banana Republic outlet right after Christmas for $70. 🙂 I had no idea what my wardrobe was missing! I wear it all the time now.
Thanks a lot Belle. I just impulse bought the Vince Camuto coat while at work facepalm. Ideally, I would love to own a Burberry, esp. the coat Kate Middleton wore on her tour of Ireland ( https://www.glamour.com/fashion/blogs/slaves-to-fashion/2011/03/08/0308kate-middleton-burberry-trench_fa.jpg ) but alas, it sold out within days (as everything worn by KM does).
I am constantly amazed by the fact that I almost always want the Elected Official and the Unpaid Intern options but the Hill Staffer option leaves me feeling “Meh.” *laughs at self. The trench is a great choice to post to celebrate almost-spring! What are your thoughts on the “short trench”? Too trendy? Can you wear one if you're over 40? Thanks 🙂
My comment didn't take. Oops. Thanks for this – I am in the hunt for a classic Burberry. What is the classic-classic Burberry, in your opinion? Must it be khaki?
