BB Dakota Southard Trench
We’re just aching for some gorgeous weather in NYC. But despite these rainy days, Spring is on the horizon and since we’re experiencing April showers, it’s just the right time to don a fabulous trench coat! Trench coats are the perfect transitional piece and Spring essential; keeping you looking chic in any weather. And we’ve got one to give away to one lucky reader!
What’s Haute has partnered with Excess Baggage to give away this contemporary-meets-classic Southard Trench by BB Dakota (a $103 value), one of our fave brands! This Parisian-style coat is your traditional trench, with front flaps and a button-front notch-collar. But the classic coat gets an updated, trendy feel with ruching at the shoulders, flanking a back yoke flap and belt-trimmed sleeves. An adjustable belt cinches the waist making it extra flattering. The coat is made of a 95% cotton/3% polyester/2% spandex blend and in an olive green color that will set you apart from all of the khaki trenches you’re bound to see.
Think this BB Dakota Southard Trench should be yours? Here’s how to win:
Visit Excess Baggage and tell us in the comments section below which item(s) on their site you’d pair with this trench. Be creative!

Olive and violet are a beautiful color combination. I’d wear it with cognac sandals and turquoise jewelery.

Love this trench. I’d pair it with this sexy
Leather Patch Tank Dress by Blaque Label.
i would pair the trench with the Jameson dress by Jack and a pair of knee high boots

with the solid brass diamond earrings! http://shopexcessbaggage.com/accessories/jewelry/earrings/finger-candy-oval-pink-crystal-ring-by-skinny-style-549.html
xo ShoeTease
I would pair this trench with this Black Baseball Tank by Sunday Rocks & Mesh Garter Leggings by LnA.
i love more celebrities’ styles than i can name,
mostly because no two dress the same.
to accessorize this coat wouldn’t be a chore;
i have so many ideas each of which i adore!
mrs. victoria beckham would be my style muse;
to copy an older look of hers is what i would choose.
she went out in a trench just like this,
and along the way passed along many fashion tips.
a black birkin is what she wore-
the “Eggplant Silves Tote” matches– hardly a chore!
her hair was long and her sunglasses dark,
add a sparkler (like the “Finger Candy Oval Pink Crystal Ring”) and you can’t miss the mark!
her coat was what really stole the show
as did keeping her gorgeous husband in tow.
this is the look that i’d like to tote,
except my jacket would be this “Southard Trench” coat!
my bf would hold my hand & pumps would be on my feet,
keeping me warm in icy nyc…oh what a treat!
Victoria and I share more than a name,
Fashion for us is never a game.
thanks for reading; this giveaway rocks;
keep the posts coming because what’s haute is tops!
