FAB TRENCHCOAT FINDS

Trench coats are a wonderful addition to any wardrobe and a fashionable one can make any drab clothing underneath go unnoticed.

Stand out with a belted denim trench coat by Ralph Lauren for $179. It is designed in stretch denim for a structured fit, with chic anchor-embossed gold buttons and a double-breasted silhouette. Denim never looked so good. What's more, this designer trench is currently on sale at only $119.99.

A more sophisticated alternative is the Soia & Kyo Asymmetrical Trench Coat priced at $176.99. Its oversized saucer buttons boost the trendiness of a contemporary-fit trench, with contrast piping at the button-tab sleeves and belt. Typically unique of Soia & Kyo designs, this coat has a large oval buckle that emphasizes the nipped-in waist, while front and back inverted pleats give fullness to the skirt. A plus is that it has on-seam pockets and polyester lining. This water-resistant trench comes in cherry and off white.

For those on a tighter budget, the Aqua 3/4 Sleeve Trench Coat (a Bloomingdale's Exclusive) is now 50% off at only $44. Ultra feminine with layered look for the skirt, this trench coat dress is very versatile. It has modern three-quarter sleeves, button front trench styling, and tie waist and pockets. The coat can actually be worn as is, with jeans or leggings. It also comes in two colour options: khaki or black.

If you can afford it, buy all three! The Aqua for office wear, the Ralph Lauren denim for weekends and nights out, and the Soia & Kyo when you really want to impress.
