Every girl needs a functional closet full of quality staples that will outlast trends and serve as the building blocks for her wardrobe. A key item at the top of our list to invest in is a trench coat. This jacket has been worn throughout  the decades by style icons such as Jackie O., Audrey Hepburn, and the list goes on. A trench coat stands the test of time and will always make you look chic. We promise! In your search for the perfect trench, try opting for a neutral one. A classic trench in khaki, black, or navy will go with anything. We love this mid-length one.
