Trenches have become so popular, you can find them in any colorway and at any length, so think about what works best for you.

If you're tall, go for something floor-skimming or a design that stops right above your shoes so you can show them off.

Flattering Spring Trend: Animal Print
Animal print is sticking around. But you don't have to wear it from head to toe if you're more comfortable showing off a flash of leopard from under a blazer — or perhaps you prefer a snakeskin boot with a midi dress. If you do feel comfortable rocking a loud print down to the floor, avoid a superbusy look by opting for neutral accessories.
