It pick: A Trench Coat with a Twist

A fashion icon, Sienna Miller's eclectic style is often imitated but never replicated-there seems to be an air about her that just allows her to get away with outfits others would be practically mocked in. Here she is adding her unique taste and edgy style to one of the hottest fall trends-the trench coat. A must-have this season, the lightweight trench coat is both fashionable and functional-could a girl ask for more? Any Austin native can appreciate its easy-to-tote nature, as our fall seasons often involve beginning the day in a jacket and sporting a T-shirt by lunch. Trench coats are the perfect solution to our need for layering with our good 'ole unpredictable Texas weather. Whether it's flirty, girlie, vintage, or crisp and polished, this jacket is popping up in every shape and form this season. If you already own one, buy another. Or better yet, find a fabulous cinch belt to throw over it and its instantly chic for autumn. No fashion lover should let fall pass her by without taking her pick at one of these timelessly classic coats.
