Living in SF has given us 1,001 reasons to buy more than our fair share of coats. The daily fog makes it impossible to leave the house in the morning without one. When we first moved here, we invested in a classic khaki trenchcoat from Banana Republic and haven’t regretted that decision since.

Nina Garcia at Marie Claire recently wrote that a trench coat is a wardrobe staple that is worth the extra $$ as an investment piece. Most trenches are timeless, while still offering the option of being a bit edgy. Below are a few of our faves that are hot for fall. As WhoWhatWear mentioned in a recent post, the trench is the perfect accessory to transition your wardrobe from summer to fall.

Marc Jacobs $498.00 at ShopBop

Banana Republic Classic Trench $198

Juicy Couture Belted Trench $378 at Bloomingdales
