It looks great on you! How clever to have the belt removed. I bought the same one a few weeks ago and since we're the same height I'm interested in the advice to shorten. Haven't worn mine yet and appreciate the insight into wrinkling. Thanks for posting this, and I'm loving your hair in these pics! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-trench-style-topper#post-1468171 Sat, 04 Apr 2015 14:07:49 +0000 AM 1468171@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Deborah:&nbsp;</b>Thank you.

And yes, will shorten.</p> <p><b>Staysfit:&nbsp;</b>Great point. Most fabric would wrinkle... And should have taken it off for the drive. I was late and didn't have my head on straight. And yes, I think shorter will be a bit better. Thank you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-trench-style-topper#post-1467923 Sat, 04 Apr 2015 00:46:38 +0000 Staysfit 1467923@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it will look great a little shorter. I like how you wore it. Your scarf is beautiful with the topper. I have long commutes a most days. My shortest is 45 minutes and longest is 90 minutes and even 2 hours depending on weather and traffic. I usually take off my jackets, toppers, and coats in my car. I don't like the bulk while I drive, but it also reduces wrinkling. I think even the best quality material is likely to wrinkle or stretch if you crush it for 45 minutes by sitting on it while driving. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-trench-style-topper#post-1467919 Sat, 04 Apr 2015 00:36:52 +0000 Style Fan 1467919@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the look and it will look great if you decide to shorten it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-trench-style-topper#post-1467914 Sat, 04 Apr 2015 00:26:09 +0000 AM 1467914@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Thistle: </b>Thanks. But I'm thinking I'd also like a column of white/cream under this jacket...</p> <p><b>Diane G:&nbsp;</b>Thank you. Elegant and chic was the goal!</p> <p><b>lisap:&nbsp;</b>Yup. Want an indoor long light weight jacket. But after looking at the pictures, I thought perhaps I need to take this up a few inches.</p> <p><b>Aida:&nbsp;</b>I was thinking maybe light gray silky track pants or something more similar to the reference image would be fun. And yes, thinking indoors and it should be shortened a bit. Definitely saw this when looking at the pictures. Thank you.</p> <p><b>Angie:&nbsp;</b>Thank you. And I think you're right about shortening it. Again, thank you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-trench-style-topper#post-1467875 Fri, 03 Apr 2015 22:29:57 +0000 Angie 1467875@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I echo Lisa. I'd take 4 to 5 inches off the bottom.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-trench-style-topper#post-1467873 Fri, 03 Apr 2015 22:26:35 +0000 Aida 1467873@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hmm I think if you want to wear it primarily as an indoor-type topper a little shorter would be good (the at-the-knee length of your inspiration photo looks fab). It's also possible that the contrast of the shorter white top is making the trench look extra long. Would you ever wear it over a light column? It's very dramatic! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-trench-style-topper#post-1467840 Fri, 03 Apr 2015 21:12:54 +0000 Anonymous 1467840@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you could get away with taking a few inches off .....it would visually lighten the look... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-trench-style-topper#post-1467837 Fri, 03 Apr 2015 21:11:01 +0000 AM 1467837@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Any thoughts on if I should shorten this topper? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-trench-style-topper#post-1467802 Fri, 03 Apr 2015 20:30:34 +0000 AM 1467802@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is the coat with details:<br /><a rel="nofollow" href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/chelsea28-belted-crepe-trench-coat/3851327">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/ch.....at/3851327</a></p> <p>I wanted it more of an indoor piece but having driven 45 minutes each way to the lunch meeting -- it was a little wrinkled.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-trench-style-topper#post-1467799 Fri, 03 Apr 2015 20:24:41 +0000 Anonymous 1467799@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Really nice. What's the fabric? And is it lined like an actual outdoor piece? &nbsp;Reason i ask is I just bought a pale pink (!) unlined trench style piece that isn't belted either. &nbsp;I kind of bought it without thinking too much about how and where I'd actually wear it - I mean, the colour was just ME and I love the long loose fit. &nbsp;Are you planning on wearing it indoors sort of like &nbsp;jacketish thing? &nbsp;I'm worried mine is going to be a big wrinkled mess after sitting in it. &nbsp;Anyways - curious about yours.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-trench-style-topper#post-1467772 Fri, 03 Apr 2015 19:51:13 +0000 Anonymous 1467772@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooh, very elegant and chic! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-trench-style-topper#post-1467769 Fri, 03 Apr 2015 19:47:49 +0000 Thistle 1467769@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It looks terrific!&nbsp; A much more wearable rendition of the inspiration </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-trench-style-topper#post-1467766 Fri, 03 Apr 2015 19:45:33 +0000 AM 1467766@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I bought this trench but it's really more like a&nbsp;topper in my mind. I had&nbsp;Nordstrom remove belt. I'm a lover of long toppers.</p> <p>I had a business lunch today so I wore this with black ponte pants, gauzy white tank, ombre blue scarf, and chelsea boots. I'm thinking this long topper might have a 70's glam vibe based on some of Suz's and Angie's images? What do you think? I'm not a student of fashion history but this felt pretty good. </p>
