Short trench coat is a gorgeous fall essential that is also a versatile transitional piece. So I’m very excited to see it as a trend this coming fall. I can layer it on a mini dress teamed up with knee high socks are with bared legs and fab ankle boots. If I wear it with skinny denim jeans, it means going leggy even if I´m bundled up since the trench hits just around the hips or the upper thigh.

A short trench coat is a nice break from long coats which you tend to wear most in late fall and winter. It´s shorter and smarter than the traditional trench but with all the classic features still in place. It´s also easy to wear on days when the temperature changes rapidly, from warm to cold and back to warm, you will be covered but not overly.
If short trench coat is something you´re digging for fall, here are my recommendations.
