A couple weeks ago, I stumbled upon an eyelet trench in my local Anthropologie store. It was on sale for $89.95 (orig. $168) at that time. I wasn’t on the market for a new trench, but I decided to try it on because there was something intriguing about an eyelet trench.
The coat’s white embroidered eyelet pops over a chambray lining. Other details like the fit-and-flare silhouette and subtle tier at the bottom take this coat to serious style heights. I’m glad I tried it on and got to appreciate the full beauty of the coat because the online pictures don’t do it justice.
Believe it or not, though, I left the store without the coat the first time because there were so many in stock (and it didn’t appear to be popular), so I expected the price to fall more. That turned out to be a good move because a couple of weeks later, the coat was marked down further to $49.95.

Cute look!! How did you achieve your hairdo??Looks great! What products did you use? is this a twist or braid out? how long did you have it twisted/braided? How do you keep it at night? 🙂 sorrryyyy for the many questions!
Thanks, Sandie! And, I welcome all your hair questions.
This hairdo is a twist-out. It was set over night after being spritzed with water and moisturized with Darcy's Botanicals Coconut Lemongrass Transitioning Creme. I twisted the hair the way I wanted it to fall and clipped the front pieces down (to keep the twists elongated) before wrapping my hair with a satin scarf before bed. To maintain definition and elongation, I have to retwist every night.
I have a few hair posts. You can see them all here: http://www.economyofstyle.net/search/label/Hair
