Style will forever be one of my favourite Swift songs along with the piano rendition of Forever & Always, Never Grow Up and Begin Again. Its lyrically, vocally and musically beautiful and it will never go out of style (pun intended!). I wouldn’t say my style is classic per se because I’m young enough to throw random stuff together and leave the door without much thought but I do like the idea of modern prep which I think is how I would describe my go to style … which brings me to this lightweight trench coat. With the winter solstice behind us, that means we can start looking forward (maybe a little too early but I’m just wishful like that) to longer days and warmer weather very soon! It was 5 degrees this morning when I left for university but much warmer when the sun was beaming so I really shouldn’t complain. I like keeping it all loose like a goose with this coat and then layering my infinity scarf and furry snug for maximum impact. Add some fun printed pants, practical boots, a classic leather band watch, bright lips and you have my personality in an outfit – bubbly, practical and imperfect!

Screamed a little at the T Swizzle reference. My favourite Swift songs are similar to yours, with Never Grow Up gracing the top spot. You look so classy, Karen! Absolutely loving the trench and that red lip (classic thing)!

I forgot that Australia’s season is the opposite of Canada, it’s winter there and summer here! Believe it or not, I have yet to score myself a trench coat, I keep telling myself that I’m saving up for one from Burberry but I probably need to save up till I’m 80. LOL!
