    I love a leather trench especially the ones that flair out at the bottom and accentuate the curves of a woman's body. My favorite overall look is Christian Dior!

    It's cool to see this sort of cut and hem for leather jackets- very different, and imaginative indeed!

    carrie!
    youknow the downside of tropical weather is the lack of seasonal opportunities. the coats look really smart and trendy, but i can only wear things like that when i'm travelling...
    although wot r your thougths on bulky trenches--certainly not for larger ladies, yes?
    cheers

    Yay!!! I have a chocolate brown leather trench coat that I bought back in college that I've been refusing to get rid of. I don't really have a need for it here in LA, but I'm moving to ATL soon and I'm sure I'll get some good wear out of it there!
