I've received several requests to review my Burberry Kensington Trench coat so here goes. Please feel free to leave any additional questions you may have below. Thank you - and Happy Holidays! Laura
This coat has been on my wishlist for years, I will have to keep an eye out for sales now that I know it goes on sale. It looks great on you, congratulations!! XOXO
You look stunning in that trench. The color is spot on. I have a Burberry trench in dark blue and I get so much wear out of it. Especially great for work :)
Thank you so much! I would suggest going up as size as I did so you can wear in cooler weather as well - such a perfect coat for just about everything! :)
You and I have the same style and a lot of the same items. I bought the shorter Kensington in honey while I was in NYC this summer. Wish I could have gotten it on sale. They are pricey! ;-)
+Handbags World Thank you so much! I love the black as well but already have a longer trench from Banana Republic in black so I decided to go light for spring. Hoping I can keep it clean! :)
I know for men the last button should not be buttoned, not sure if that applies to womens coats though. You look great in your coat and stone was probably the right choice for you (as black would probably have been as well). Im intending to match with a cashmere camel check scarf similar to yours but since my trech will be the honey colored version Im not sure thats the right way to go. Thanks for the vid!
Hi Laura, wow you Burberry coat looks just absolutely fabulous on you, in both the styles you tried it in, and it looks so beautiful with the Burberry scarf. All you need now is the umbrella and a pair of Burberry gloves (do they make gloves???) I love your style Laura. Yourself and Nettie, are for sure my fashion gurus. I love Everything you both wear.... Big love and hugz, and very happy holidays 🌹🎄🕊🌹🎄🕊🌹🎄🕊 xxxxxx
+Elaine Howard Thank you Elaine, that's so sweet! Love Nettie's style as well! And yes, Burberry makes beautiful gloves and I love that idea! Happy Holidays! :)
Santa was very good to you this year! It is a beautiful trench coat and looks amazing on you. I am about your height and I love the length on you. I'm thinking I could have my (non Burberry) old trench tailored to look more modern. Thanks for sharing. Merry Christmas!
Great trench! I would love it in Navy! And thanks for sharing your size/proportions..I have a similar body frame so that was very helpful! Great OOTD look!!! Happy Holidays!
You look lovely. I sooo would love one. But I can't afford a new one. So I think I will save up for a second hand/ vintage one. Thanks for making the video.
Laura, congratulation on getting this trench, did not know they went on sale :(, I know this was one of your big wish list item so I am so happy you got it. It looks fabulous on you with your scarf :D xox
+Nettie Ward I Nettiesworld4u Thanks Nettie! Yes, this was a big wish list item and it had gone on sale for 30 percent off over Black Friday weekend so I had to do it sooner than later! Now I'm saving up for the cashmere liner so I can wear year round (in NC anyway). Happy Holidays and looking forward to seeing you in the new year!:)
What a perfect choice in color and length! Goes so well with your style. I recently bought mine in Sandringham mid length and though it looks great on, it's a bit uncomfortable sitting and driving since arms are so fitted. May have to get a stone Kensington, looks more comfortable. Question, did you have your sleeves altered at Nordstrom? Thanks for helpful video!
Hi Laura. Just curious if they shortened your sleeves from the armhole area or from the bottom of sleeve? Getting a Kensington and worried about visible stitching holes from moving the tabs at bottom of sleeve. Shortening sleeve from the armholes narrowed the circumference on my Sandringham in the past. Any problems with your Kensington alteration? Thanks!
Hi, I got a male Kensington trench, but I found that the lower pocket areas started getting very wrinkly after wearing it for a month or so. I put my wallet and phone in the two pockets. Did you get this issue, and if yes, did you iron it yourself or give it to the dry cleaners?
I love your videos and enjoy u so much Hon. Love your BB coat - Hey..what's your thoughts on your New black LV scarf? Are u loving it? Do u have a review on all your BB and LV scarfs?
Hi Laura - love your new coat. Stunning on you! could u please share the item number of the Beautiful BB wool/ silk scarf!? It's a beauty. Thanks Hon! I'd like to order it.
+HaveLouisWillTravel thank you Laura..will look for that BB scarf. Did u ever have a look at the BB Ashurst diamond quilted jacket? It's a classy light weight spring/ fall piece. Really nice!! Thanks Hon!
Loved the way you styled with the speedy. I had to get the stone too because the honey looked awful on me (which I hadn't expected) but then was worried it would only look good with black bags. (I only have monogram and azur bags right now so hadn't tried with the darker version.). You've given me an excuse to shop. ;-)
+lylarush I haven't actually worn yet but will likely dry clean only. And I do use s steamer at home for wrinkles should that be an issue. Congrats on yours as well! :)
Thx for sharing! I love this coat--I just checked nordstroms and it doesn't seem to be on sale anymore 😔 Was it a big difference in price? I'm wondering if it's worth waiting until next year since I've never seen it on sale anywhere else...
+Stacy Davidson Thank you Stacy. It was 30 percent off but only in this color. Might be worth waiting until spring and if not, I would have likely paid full price at the store. :)
Beautiful Trenchcoat! Great Look! Would like to see another OOTD with your Trench! But if you wear the trenchcoat for Business it would be even more elegant to close the belt by Downward Loop.
Wow..Can you be anymore chic? Beautiful Laura! Okay... where did you get your shoes? They are look amazing with your jeans....I did not know that Burberry coats go on sale.....Nice to know ;)
+Julisa Stevens You're so sweet - thank you! The shoes are Halogen from Nordstrom. And yes, Nordstrom, Saks, Bloomingdales and Neiman's do run sales on Burberry from time to time so definitely check them out if you're looking! :)
I miss living in a big city where all the nice stores are :( I have to drive about 3 hrs to San Fransisco, Los Angeles or Sacramento for lux items. That's why I love watching you ladies....I trust your reviews so it makes it less stressful when I go online to order big ticket items. Will be checking out the shoe brand too! Thank you for the info :) Have a wonderful day!
your video is really awesome ! is black friday the only time to have discout on burberry heritage trench coat? did you cut your sleeve shorter? if so, how long did you cut? and where did you buy this coat? thank you!
I actually got this on sale at Nordstrom last year and it's the first time I had seen this particular trench on sale but others from Burberry do go on sale from time to time. And I had the sleeves shortened a bit at the store for free.
Hi, you are looking stanning! I ordered the similar color trench coat model marystow. It is in way to me. Could you tell what scarf did you buy to match? Model, color, dimensions. I will try to buy the same on ebay )))) Thank you!
You should check out Grenfell rainwear and Mackintosh rainwear all handmade in England and Scotland and much better made than Burberry. Or check out vintage Burberrys uch better quality.
I love your style. my style is similar to your just slightly more edgier. I also want to thank you for that wonderful tip regarding coutureuas.com. It's a great site to purchase classic pieces.
