Hi there! It’s springtime while I’m writing this, so we are in the middle of trench coat season. As someone who lives in an area where we truly get four seasons, layers are always an important part of my wardrobe. Trench coats are one of my favorite types of outerwear because you can wear them throughout so many seasons, including spring, fall, and even summer. They’re also perfect for travel because they’re lightweight, easy to pack, or easy to carry on a plane.
Cropped trench coats are a fun take on the trench coat. They’re on trend but they’re classic. I love when this happens because since a cropped trench is not over the top trendy, you’ll still want to wear it next year. There’s nothing worse than being excited about something in your closet one year and hating it the next. Anyway, like all trench coats, cropped trench coats come in different styles and fabric options, so I’m sharing a round up of ways to style them!
First, here are a few cropped trench coats I love. I didn’t realize how many cute cropped trench coats there are right now, so be sure to scroll through the options! I really love the denim and linen options.

How to Style a Classic Cropped Trench Coat For Work, Weekend, & Travel
Classic Cropped Trench With Jeans: Wear This Anywhere
If you’re looking for an outfit you will never get tired of wearing, this is one of my go-to looks. Your favorite pair of jeans (I love the pair I’m wearing), a nice t-shirt, and outerwear you love – in this case, my cropped trench coat! I wore this to run errands one day, but I’ve also worn this type of outfit to dinner with friends and with my family. It’s super versatile because it’s really just an outfit of reliable wardrobe basics! I love how you can dress it up with accessories too. Shop my outfit here.

Classic Beige Cropped Trench Coat For Work
Okay, a little more on this trench. My cropped trench coat is 100 percent cotton, and it is just so classic. It looks chic buttoned up for your commute to work or if you’re walking around outside. This is a great coat to take with you on a spring or fall vacation because you can make it the centerpiece of your outfit. Just throw on a t-shirt underneath and wear it buttoned up! I’m actually wearing a simple long sleeve top under it in this photo. It is work appropriate, but you could easily wear a button up instead. I also love how easy this trench coat is to maintain, too – I throw mine in the washer and dryer! Shop my outfit here.
Cropped Trench Coat With A Skirt
Skirts are spring, summer, and fall staples if you ask me, and a cropped trench coat is the perfect thing to wear with a skirt outfit when you need or want an extra layer. Again, this type of outfit is something you can wear to work, to drinks after work with friends, or on a vacation.
What Are The Best Cropped Trench Coats And When To Wear Them
Okay, I’ve searched the internet for cute cropped trench coats so you don’t have to. Here are several I want to highlight!
Classic Cropped Trench Coat Under $100
My cotton trench coat in beige or one of the options below makes a lot of sense for spring. I love how it feels like spring since it’s a brighter option, and it will go perfectly with lighter spring colors like pastels. If you’re like me and actually wear neutrals like brown all year, and it goes with those too! These cropped trench coats are also 100 percent cotton or 98 percent cotton, which makes it a nice option for all different temperatures. I love how cotton doesn’t make you sweat like polyester tends to.
Green Cropped Trench Coat
The first trench coat here is another 100 percent cotton option! Both of these are perfect for spring or fall. I love how olive green does give off a fall vibe, and it matches so well with black or brown. But, I wear olive green all year so I would also wear this in the spring! It’s a color that is here to stay, so it will also never go out of style!
Denim Cropped Trench Coat
Okay, I love denim trench coats so much, so I was really excited to find this one. This is perfect to wear on a night out or just running errands. It would look really cute with jeans, a simple top, and your favorite shoes. I love the idea of wearing it with a chic pair of boots in the fall or winter, or a cute pair of sandals in the spring.
Linen Cropped Trench Coat
This linen cropped trench coat is a unique spin on a trench coat! It gets warm here during the spring some days, so I love that a linen trench coat is even an option. It’s perfect if you need a light layer for a rainy day when it’s warm.
