1. The short trench
Hip-length. Functional. Open over a tee. Dress up or down. What’s not to love?
2. The rain trench
It’s long, it has a hood and it’s water repellent. It has style, and it’s functional. This one stays in the car.
3. The Saturday jacket
I’m not going to age myself, but everyone who was everyone wore a barn jacket when I was a teen. Like when your Mom told you to clean your room because you didn’t live in a barn….and then told you to wear your expensive barn jacket when it was cold outside. Make it make sense. Regardless, they are back, they are cropped and they are everywhere.

This sweater makes me want to crank up the air conditioning in this insanely hot Texas climate…just so I can wear it now. We love the zipper, because you can totally alter the look by adding different shirts underneath.

For next level styling, tie it on the tote, in your hair or wear it as a scarf. There are so many possibilities and patterns.
