Elegant Ways To Style A Trench Coat For Women Over 50

I've included links to many different types of trench coats in the video description but I'd love to know which one is your favourite. Lots of love to you all. Deirdre. XX

I have 2 burberry midi length trench coats. One is red and the other one is navy blue. Beige trenches do nothing for my colouring.

Love my trench coat. Classy with my hood. Extremely useful on bad rain days hood come off and serves its purpose. Boots and jeans with turtleneck. High boots 👢 whatever stunning 🤩.

Hi Dierdre,
Love your tips and your energetic presentation! You look gogeous in your olive-colored silk blouse!

I recently bought a knee-length white trench with tortoise-shell type buttons from New York & Company--used from Poshmark, and it looks brand new at only $20. It looks so classy, and it matches my gorgeous luggage, which is the retro streamer trunk type in white with camel leather trim. Here's a tip you might like: remove the self-fabric belt and use a long, silk scarf--tres chic. You mentioned sateen: I love that fabric; I also recently bought a short black trench in that fabric on ThredUp.

Enjoyed the video. I can never open the clips which are stylink? Any suggestions?

I have just purchased a trench coat from a charity shop. It is gorgeous and I really needed these ideas thank you x

Hi Deirdre. You look lovely in that color green. I have a J Crew cotton trench I bought last year that I've only worn a handful of times. It's camel color and fits great but I don't reach for it. Thanks for the ideas as I'd love to wear it more often.

Another great video full of really good ideas. Thank you

Dear DEIDERE , why not having a New hair cut !
You look so excited

hi i love all your videos, ive just turned 60 im very fit doing 13 classes a week and dont look my age so people tell me i got into a little rut and lost of what i shouldn't and should wear its a mine field out there, but you have made it a lot easier, ive cleared out my wardrobe and starting again with the basics i find it hard to get clothes to fit as im 5.3 ft and a pear shape size 10/12 i have to have everything altered which bumps up the price what are your thoughts on faux leather trousers as i cant find any that fit well would love a video on it.

Hi Deirdre ....is the first trench from ASOS very shiny? Xx

Love them all. So cozy and stylish.

Loved this. Thank you ❤️

Thank you. Great video!!! cheers

I bought my first trench coat in the 60`s. I have always had one in my wardrobe, I must admit that my favourite colour has always been the beige/sand.

Loved this video. I’ve been rotating my 2 maxi trench coats by Gallery for the past 12yrs. One is black and the other is green with zip out wool linings for colder weather. They still look fabulous. I couldn’t live without them. Classic style where one has a belt and the other single breasted with hidden button front.

Whenever I decide I need to buy something new I check eBay first. I’ve recently bought a Next trench for £3 👏
Deirdre I think you’re lovely but please stop saying “fall” 🙏🏼

Deirdre do you prefer double breasted or single?

In Scottsdale I wouldn’t wear a trench it’s too heavy and it’s more elevated sportswear. Most chic women here in fall wear a faux fur vest or chic little puffer jacket or vest or a lightweight leather jacket.

Hi, love your beautiful green blouse! X

Hey Deirdre! Thank you for this trench coat video! I think I prefer a single button rather than a double breasted. I will be on the hunt for neutral one that works for me! 💕

Trenchcoats really haven't changed much over the years . I'm still hanging onto a cafe-au-lait coloured one from the eighties . The slight shoulder pads in it may not be as noticeable as I think they are . Certainly my sand coloured knee length trench is a most versatile one but a favourite is also a RL caramel shade that I wear more often . Lots of ideas and looks here !

I have a 10 year old red London Fog trench Knee length I’ve worn it so many times- especially when I want to be noticed! Thanks for this video And PS I love your green shirt Looks so good on you

Also LOVE the maxi versions!👌🏻😁

Love “look four”- scarf, etc.😊🕶

Really interesting. Thanks for the tips.

Great content! Very informative!

I agree, a very long coat is more flattering for petites, like me. The worst length is a mid-length that visually cuts the body into two equal sections. I have a fuller bust and waist, so for me, a single-breasted style is much more flattering than a double-breasted style, which adds visual and actual bulk to the body. I also think they look much better open than the double-breasted styles.

Thanks for another great video. Mine is vintage Old Navy 2009, 100% Cotton, thigh length camel color. My favorite way to wear is with navy pants and a navy and white striped tee with white Vans. It is virtually indestructible. I love it. It feels like fall.

I like trench coats with a removable (zip or button) insulated lining, they work for nearly all weather in my California climate. I always bought London Fog brand, but I noticed the last one I got from them is lower-quality, using polyester instead of nylon fabric for the shell. So, I’m looking for a better brand.

I love a nice trenchcoat, both beige and blacks. You looked nice with all of them. Will try the little neck scarf!

I always enjoy your videos and am sorry Chanel didn't want to join you. I appreciate all your visual examples and listing the items for us. I know these videos are quite a lot of work to produce and the videos are always filled with lots of good information. Have a great rest of your week.

Mine is double breasted and a lovely stone colour. It’s not showerproof, but more like a twill. It’s warm without being too heavy.
It’s by Oasis and I got it half price. My tailor friend shortened it to just above the knee.

Kitty Chanel is right, she knows fashion 👍😻 Fabulous as always Deirdre 💖 Have a beautiful day.

Great ideas for wearing a trench coat! The first white coat looks great!

Love the video! 💕

Hi gorgeous! Love these tips. xx
