How Parisians style coats for spring

Can’t whisk yourself away to Paris for the weekend? Stay home and fake it till you make it with your wardrobe, specifically in Parisian approved spring coats. Style is in their blood so if you’re ever in a fashion slump look to our neighbours across the channel for renewed inspiration. From the classic trench to super casual (and cosy) options, sidestep an expensive trip on the Eurostar for a brand new coat fit for a leisurely stroll around the Marais.

Effortlessly cool fashion people - otherwise known as “Parisians” - know a great coat when they see one. Whether you’re French or not, a trench coat is a no-brainer in everyone’s wardrobe. Perfect for the transitional seasons when the temperature fluctuates from freezing to fair and back again, a trench can be layered over your chunkiest knits and hold its own as the star of the show. Mixing neutral tones is the epitome of chic, and the oh-so-simple but impactful styling trick of nonchalantly tying a jumper over your shoulders gives this look a final "je ne sais quoi".

We love a spin on a classic which is why we’ve fallen for this cropped trench, hard. Grab the opportunity to play with proportions and run with it, styling with wide leg trousers and a staple tank top to peek out under the trench’s cropped hem and keep you warm on coffee runs. The rich beige shade of the trench paired with its tortoiseshell style buttons adds instant warmth to grey(er) spring days.

When in doubt, simplicity is the fast track to a head-to-toe stylish outfit. Why over complicate perfection when perfection can be a pair of jeans and a statement coat? Playing with light and dark tones amps up the impact of this otherwise “basic” look and it’s this simple trick that makes it worthy of the Parisians. Keep everything in one tone (we’ve gone for black) and flip the colour chart on your coat to capture everyone's attention. Remember to tell them where you got it.
