In the Trenches

I mean, what do you wear when the calendar says spring and the scene outside your windows say mid-December? Thankfully, I can be casual-hip at work (bless the magazine world!) but I'm also glad I had the foresight to purchase last fall in NYC the most useful piece of clothing I've ever owned: The basic, durable trenchcoat. This thing has saved my life, whether I'm rocking jeans or a little dress, it's ideal for work, running to the store - heck, I've even worn it to the gym - because I can fit about four layers underneath. Long live the trench!
