As the seasons change and fashion trends come and go, one timeless piece that remains a staple in any wardrobe is the trench coat. And this season, I am obsessed with the cropped trench, paired with a pencil skirt, together with some refreshing Spring colors. It’s a classic silhouette with a modern and fun twist.
Today I am styling 2 looks to show off this trendy and classic combination.
Why do I like the Cropped Trench this season?
It provides a refined layer without overwhelming my frame — perfect for accentuating the waist and highlighting an outfit. This Burberry cropped trench has been in my wardrobe for years (you can how I wore it before in the post here & here. I like how it seamlessly fits into different styles, from casual to professional. I also found similar style here & here. This budget friendly version just landed in my shopping cart as well.
Why I like and will always like a Pencil Skirt?
The reason is simple — it’s a timeless classic. Pencil skirt’s tailored cut hugs the body in all the right places, making it an ideal match for any sophisticated look. When choosing a pencil skirt, I always like a bit of a tight fit, and I always prefer the length to land below my knees and avoid the widest part of my calves, and high-waisted styles always help to enhance my silhouette even further, especially when paired with a cropped top layer.

How to Mastering Color Mixing if you are a color fashion lover?
There are already many experts/influencers talking about all the tips and tricks here and there. And in general, there are many fun ways to wear colorful outfit, including choosing colors that complement each other, or opt for a monochromatic palette, pattern play, and add a pop of color. My final advice would be choose colors that showcase your personal style while embracing the art of mixing. We all like a combination that not only enhances our figure but also provides endless opportunities for creativity, and that make us look and feel good.
