What's your opinion on wearing black or navy long overcoat over T shirt and jeans in SoCal? Long overcoat is rare as hen's teeth here.

Maybe navy in a cotton or other lightweight material. I think lighter colors or slightly shorter coats just work better in that environment. Long coats kinda look weird to me if it's not cold or raining. Gotta respect the goth kids that go full dark trench coats depsite it being 78 degrees and totally dry.
