Navy Blue Trench Coat + Zip Fitted Low Ankle Boots

There is something special about a trench coat.  In my opinion, it has always symbolized a classic look. And I’ve expressed my love for simple, chic, timeless fashion plenty of times here and here. In the fashion industry, it has always been a staple worn by celebrities, especially. These days though the trench has become quite the trend. And I am ok with that, but after all the trend dust settles, I’ll still love this baby like a fat kid loves cake.  I’ll wear it proudly in the streets, even if it means funny looks from strangers. I don’t even kurrr. (Channeling my inner Cardi-B.). The Trenchcoat is genuinely a must-have staple in any closet, guys, and gals because it is adaptable and trans-seasonal,

Road tripping in the German Countryside

Recently, we took a road trip to Bacharach Germany, a little town so adorable my heart melted into a puddle. To show you guys, I posted a travel guide with tons of pictures that don’t do this Beauty and The Beast village any justice.

Abril’s go-to outfit

My outfit on this particular day was an Abril classic for sure.  I say that because I have a go-to outfit style when we go on road trips.  A lot of the times, when we explore cities, we are gone all day.  That means a lot of walking and being mainly on our feet, with the occasional lunch and wine break. (*wink*) Although I love fashion, I am not willing to sacrifice comfort for the sake of looks. A comfortable outfit is a must for this girl.

OUTFIT NOTES

Navy blue trench coat: The color of this trench coat goes well with everything. Even black. Although, I do recommend wearing darker colors in the Autumn and Winter seasons.  Sizing for the coat is XS which is true to size – TTS.  It fits perfectly in the shoulders, and breast area.  This double-breasted beauty, when completely buttoned shows no hazard of potential buttons popping off and taking someone’s eye out. The trench coat is belted which accentuates the waist well.  My favorite part about the belt is, you can tie it behind you if it gets in the way.  The cuteness level from the back is perfect.

White bell sleeve blouse: The white blouse, I didn’t show, but it had adorable bell sleeves, elbow length. I chose white because the dark blue would contrast well against it.   Size is XS and runs a bit on the bigger side. 

Levi’s Jeans: These “double seamed ankle jeans” cut is currently my favorite. They have more cropped length, hence the word “ankle.”  The size is 25″ at the waist, and although I fit in size 24, I went with a size 25 because these Latina curves fit in them comfortably.  I purchased these last year, and unfortunately, they no longer have them in stock.  Not to worry, I’ve linked a similar pair.

Ankle Boots: The colored camel boots are the perfect contrast to all the blues.  It brings in a bit of warmth to the outfit. Comfort level is high, and much appreciated on my part.  I’ve walked in these boots for hours, and my feet feel nothing. The heel is perfect for cobblestone streets because my feet are always balanced one way or another. Meaning my ankles are not dancing merengue and getting the exercise of their life. The brand is “SixtySeven,” and a favorite in Spain and Portugal.  I found these in a local shop, but thankfully, Amazon carries them. I’ve linked a similar pair.

Cecil and I had so much fun exploring Bacharach.  We plan on visiting again and finding more little jewels like this one. Below are just a few more photos.
