10 Trench Coats for Spring Layering

A transitional trench coat is a spring wardrobe staple.

It’s getting warmer – and what a relief – but we’ve arrived at the time of year when the same outfit could have you sweating or shivering at different hours of the day. It’s time to invest in some layering pieces, and a trench coat is the perfect place to start. The trenches here vary in material and thickness, depending on how much warmth you’re looking for. Button them up or leave them open during those moments in the sun.
