Trying to solve the mystery of how to acquire criminally cute clothing that also serves a purpose? Why, it's quite elementary! A brief investigation into functional style turns up this brown, houndstooth plaid trench from BB Dakota. Look closely, and you'll deduce that the bottom ruffle provides the perfect feminine flounciness and that the belt cinches in to provide a ladylike shape to this double-breasted, menswear-inspired coat. During a storm, you'll detect that function is hot on the trail of form when you go under cover of the rain shield at the back and right chest, and when you keep your glasses, wallet, money, and keys clean and dry in the two hip pockets. Tortoise shell buttons and shoulder epaulets will tip you off to this overcoat's defectless detail, and a sturdy cotton-blend construction and satiny, sepia lining will keep you warm as you tour the rainy streets of London tracking down the hottest hangouts. Connect all the clues, and you'll draw the conclusion that you need to add this piece of outerwear to your wardrobe!
