How to Style A Sleeveless Trench Coat

Hey everyone! Today is the official launch day of the most sophisticated-chic Sleeveless Trench Duster and Mock Neck Bodysuit that I designed in collaboration with Gibsonlook. I’m super excited about the sleeveless piece because it’s unlike anything I’ve ever designed with Gibsonlook before since we’ve been working together, but when you see the styles, you’ll immediately see my name written all over them. If you’ve followed me for a while, you know that I’ve always been a huge fan of sleeveless outerwear. In fact, the sleeveless trench duster was inspired by an outfit I wore to NYFW years ago. It was one of my favorite looks I’ve ever worn so I wanted to recreate that look for you all to enjoy too. The sleeveless duster comes in three colors: black, burgundy and tan (more of a light beige). This sleeveless trench is as versatile as it gets and will totally elevate your workwear wardrobe.

As for the Jennifer Mock Neck Bodysuit, I’m sure you’ve seen rocking similar styles before as I think it’s such a flattering cut and neckline. It comes two colors: Black & Tan (the tan is very light –almost more of an ivory) This is a closet staple that is great for layering and can be style multiple different ways.

 To celebrate, we’re offering 15% OFF your entire purchase with code: HAUTE15. Scroll through this post to see how to style both pieces and for fit and sizing info.

MY SIZING AND HEIGHT FOR REFERENCE:

Most people don’t realize how petite I am and I understand that knowing my sizes can help you determine what size to get.
I am 5 ft and I wear a size 27 in high waisted jeans & smalls in leggings. I’m currently a 34B and take size XS/S in dresses and tops, smalls in sports bras, and XS-S in outerwear. I typically size down in Gibsonlook pieces. However, I suggest going true to size in these pieces because there is no stretch. I’m wearing a size XS in the Jennifer Mock Neck Bodysuit and XS in the Jennifer Trench Duster Dress.

Jennifer Mock Neck Bodysuit:

We designed the mock neck bodysuit to pair with trench duster, but this piece is a closet staple that can be worn multiple different ways. Plus a mock neck always makes me feel sophisticated and is very flattering on the shoulders. You might remember this detail from my mock neck midi dress that I launched last holiday here–> 15 Ways to Style a Black Midi Dress

The best part is that it has a zipper at the nape of the neck so you don’t have to squeeze the mock neck over your hair and makeup and mess it all up. Also, I designed the bodysuit with a thong style to avoid any panty lines on your jeans and skirts.

The bodysuit can be worn with jeans, skirts, shorts, trousers, you name it! It’s a super sleek and lightweight fabric, which makes it a great base top for layering. You can wear it to work with trousers and a blazer, or out to lunch with a pair of shorts and a cardigan or even on date night with a pair of high waisted jeans and heels. Layer gold necklaces over it the top to dress it up.

Sizing: I’m wearing the size XS. This top runs true to size.

Jennifer Trench Duster Dress:

This Jennifer Trench Duster Dress is sophisticated-chic while versatile and effortlessly cool all at the same time! It’s the perfect transitional piece into fall because it gives you all the fall vibes with the long coat factor, but the sleeveless feature makes it bearable to wear in the warmer months leading into fall. Once the weather cools down, style the sleeveless trench with boots and sleeveless turtleneck sweaters underneath or long sleeve blouses. You can also wear it as a dress with a longline topcoat over it.

I feel like a powerhouse in this sleeveless trench coat that can also be worn as a dress. I also feel so cool wearing it open with a pair jeans and bodysuit underneath. I designed this piece to help you elevate your everyday outfits.

I love the cinched detail on the back that makes it super flattering on the waist as well as the removable tie belt so you can wear the trench open with it loosely tied in the back or tie in front with a cute outfit underneath. You can even completely remove the waist tie and replace it with a statement belt.

 I would wear the sleeveless trench duster to lunch, shopping, happy hour, work meetings and the office (if I had one! LOL). Speaking of offices, if you aren’t allowed to wear sleeveless tops to work, just wear a long sleeve dress or blouse with the trench duster over it.

Happy Friday Eve Friends! I’m so excited to launch this adorable Jennifer Babydoll Dress that I designed with Gibsonlook. It’s officially available for pre-order in white paisley and navy gingham.  To celebrate, we’re offering 15% OFF your entire purchase with code: HAUTE15. If you remember how quickly the Jennifer Shirt Dress & Smocked Puff Sleeve Dress sold out  then you know that you better order quickly because your size might sell out before you get to it especially with 4th of July weekend coming up. Speaking of the Fourth, the upcoming holiday is actually the inspiration behind the dress design. I wanted a cute navy gingham print mini dress that I could wear off the shoulder to a 4th of July party and other summer events so I partnered with Gibsonlook to create the perfect babydoll dress.

The Jennifer Babydoll Dress is fun, flirty and so chic with a smocked bust and statement puff sleeves. I designed it so that the puff sleeves can be worn on or off the shoulder and both ways look so flattering on the arms and neckline. I know this will be a go-to dress for parties, summer trips, date nights, wedding festivities and so much more. It’s especially perfect for the 4th of July weekend coming up next month.

I absolutely love the smocked midi dress that I designed and launched in April with Gibsonlook, but thought it would be a nice change to go for a mini dress length for the hottest months of the year. I made sure to choose a breathable fabric for summer that is also wrinkle resistant too so you can just roll it up in your bag and put it on the second you unpack it. When it comes to styling the dress, wear it with sandals and a hat for daytime or throw on some heels and statement earrings to dress it up. You can also pair it with sneakers for an easy casual look. My favorite way to style it is to play up the boho-chic vibes by pairing it with a wide brim hat, layered necklaces and hoop earrings.  Oh and the white is perfect for brides too!

Design details:

I designed it with a cinched bust for a flattering neckline and plenty of stretch so you don’t have to deal with zippers or sucking in. I also made sure to choose a super lightweight fabric in a mini dress length to give you legs for day for summer. My favorite part is the option to wear the puff sleeves on or off the shoulder and the adjustable tie on the cinched bust.

Sizing:

Be sure to size down because Gibsonlook runs large. I am wearing the size XXS and it’s still comfortable a spacious enough to move around in. It’s also super bump friendly because their is plenty of room though the body of the dress. ***Full disclosure about the length: I’m hemmed mine 1.5 inches. Totally not necessary, but I’m only 5 ft and I like my mini dresses extra short.***

The white color is fully lined though the body so you don’t have to worry about it being see through. However, you do need to wear a nude bra or nipple covers with the white dress because the bust isn’t lined.

The Best Type of Bag for Work & Play

Morning everyone, if you follow along with me regularly then you know I just returned from a two week long vacation/work trip. So today I’ve teamed up Brahmin to share the best kind of bag to pack for both work and play. Between spending time with family and keeping up with work projects, I knew that trying to remember everything I needed to pack each day would feel overwhelming. So I decided to just bring a large tote bag that would fit everything I could possibly need for each day instead of lugging around two separate bags! I packed my Brahmin Athena Melbourne tote that has plenty of pockets and slips so that I could keep my work essentials organized alongside my daily vacation necessities like touchup makeup, SPF, extra change of clothes, etc… I of course chose a neutral color that would go with everything. I especially love how this grey color pairs with the purple printed dress I’m wearing in today’s post.

The Brahmin Athena Melbourne tote comes fully equipped with 2 interior slip pockets, a large zipper pocket, a key clip, button closure and last but not least it also comes with a removable matching leather pouch. The pouch is perfect for holding small essentials like touchup makeup etc…

The Lil Topsail Bag can be worn as a crossbody bag while traveling, a belt bag for festivals and also as a clutch to throw in your beach bag to hold all of your essentials like your ID, money, phone and some lip gloss.

Brahmin makes beautiful, quality bags for every age. I can easily shop on their site to find a bag that suits my style as well as my younger sister, my mom and even grandmother. All of their bags are very versatile, well-made and timeless. I also love their more trendy bag styles as well like this Lane Crawford Bag. The round shape and circle handles is right on trend for this season.
