Trench it up
We spotted Lerato in Sandton City looking sassy and sophisticated in a black belted trench coat adorned with gold buttons, a grey winter hat, wide-legged jeans and white pumps.
Trench coats are great for updating your wardrobe. This fashion item dates all the way back to 1846 (first made popular by Burberry) and in today's time it's is definitely a wardrobe staple for every Fashionista.
This season we can look forward to military-style trenches; bold patterns and prints, delicious ice-cream pastels as well as dramatic hues of red, coral, fuchsia, yellow and teal.
Choose hemlines that end on or just above the knee for a chic look that you can wear over just about anything - from smart trousers and jeans to playful dresses and skirts.
Most Wanted
We love this season’s off-duty look. Call it chic combat or utility, the stores are awash on olive green and khaki for a very fashionable army.
We love Woolworths’ carefully edited selection of key items and the cuffed trousers and combat palette of their new summer must-haves had us running for the rails.
While you’re there hunting down your slub cotton teeshirts and casual trousers, don’t forget to check out their new collection of statement heels.
They are hot off the international catwalks and prices start at around R300, which is super fantastic in anyone’s book!
