Saleswoman: This Spring's one and only "must have" item is THE CLASSIC TRENCH COAT! It covers the "what-was-I-thinking" minis! The "bustier blunders"! The "one-size-fits-no-one" spandex denim leggings! Now you can indulge every fashion fantasy...toss on your trench coat...and never have to reveal what you let yourself buy! Cathy: It's like wearing the trunk of my car! Saleswoman: And you thought we haven't been listening...

A good trenchcoat covers multiple sins.

I’m a big fan of trench coats. I just wish they came with hoods. Though, I hear many hoods come with trench coats. …odd, that.

Trench coats have been a style staple for years and years.

A trench coat to hide your “fashion faux pas” is all well and good, Cathy ….. until you go somewhere and have to take it off! Then what? Just save yourself the time, money (not to mention the embarrassment!) by making better, smarter clothing choices to begin with — especially since you just got done saying (yesterday) that you were looking for new, “non-flirty” office attire — rather than all of the hideous ones mentioned here by the saleslady.

With those big pockets, you can carry four changes of clothing on a really, hot summer day.

The trench coat has gained someone of a bad rep over the years. It is the preferred attire for spies (not those in the James Bond class though) PI’s, guys selling ‘good bargains’ from the inner pockets, and guys who quickly open it to show they . . .In spite of all that I did wear a trench coat for many years.
It has been a good weekend here so far. I hope yours is going well too.

" … like wearing the trunk of my car"? MEGA [eye-roll] on that one.
And if the trench coat is just going to cover other clothes, why bother looking for top-of-the-line ones to be covered up? I know it’s just a comic, but … another [eye-roll] here, too.
HI, MOM. Hello, Clan.
