Columbia Trend Spotting

The seasons are definitely changing, and you know what that means—

it is time for us to bust out our favorite winter coats and strut our stuff

out there in the cold. As I searched around the Chicago grounds of

Columbia College, I had seen coats in many colors, shapes, and sizes,

but there was one that really caught my eye. Here, this 50's vintage

inspired fashionista is totally rocking the camel colored trench coat.

Neutral colors are a must this season, and she has perfectly captured

that, by wearing camel, brown, gray, and black; these colors walked

straight down the runway and are so easy to work with.

What I personally think “makes” the outfit, is the fabulous hat.

Again with the trendy camel color, it also includes a coffee-bean

-brown mesh material. With that all bunched up together, it creates

a classy and sophisticated element to not just the hat, but the whole

outfit. The finishing touches are leather brown gloves, plaid scarf,

and gray stockings, making it the ultimate 50's chic look.

Then, trench coats were known as the “detective coats”, as seen

in movies. Now they are one of the most common garments seen

throughout all the seasons. Like Sherlock Holmes,

this fashionable college student can definitely pull off the wool

trench coat and hat looking sophisticated. Whether it's solving

crimes or mysteries like Holmes or just walking to class, it is

a given that you have solved the way to a successful outfit.

Style on,
