The buzz about a classic cropped trench coat on TikTok lately is driving me crazy, it’s not only beautiful but so edgy and stylish. So this the journey to the discovery of the cropped trench coat. A lazy day, scrolling down the ‘For You’ timeline on TikTok, then came across this blogger who talked about a cropped trench coat she found at Marks & Spencer(M&S), although it’s taupe in colour, she matched it with a baggy wide leg trouser and a pair of heels – “oh so beautiful!”
When I saw the video I went searching at Marks & Spencer’s store online but they’ve sold out. Then a month after seeing this video I went to on TikTok as per relaxing day off work, then another blogger mentioned the same trench which at this time had gone viral. So, the tenacity in me won’t let me look away, I decided to go back to M&S’s store and thank goodness this black linen cropped trench was made available in various sizes – there is nothing as joyous as finding what you’ve had your eyes on for a while.
