The sun just keeps on shining during T and I's visit to Paris. On our last day, the Queen of England AND the President of the United States were scheduled to arrive just a few short steps from where we were staying, so to avoid the chaos we opted to stroll around the Jardin des Tuileries and later head to Notre Dame Cathedral. It was a GORGEOUS day (big emphasis on the "gorgeous") with the sun warming everything up without being too hot. But since I am from southern California and anything below 80 degrees F is cold to me, I still chose to wear long sleeves. However, I paired my navy sailor stripe tee with a sleeveless trench coat. I read somewhere recently that one key fashion piece in every Frenchwoman's closet is a trench coat. While I've already had a long sleeve trench coat in my closet for years, the latest hot piece to have is the sleeveless trench, which still gives the illusion and flare of a long-sleeved trench coat but can be worn in warmer weather. I am obsessed with mine and was so happy I could rock in while in Paris.
