I wouldn't bother trying to find a cheap, stylish waterproof jacket. Just carry thin waterproofs that you can wear over anything and replace them when they stop being waterproof. Something like the tucano urbano nano is great as it packs so small. One piece will protect you better but they are usually more bulky and a bit more of a pain to put on. Successful bike gear is all about the layering.
Tucano Urbano do some decent jackets too, check out Urban Rider. It's a stupid brand name but I've never had a bad product from them. If you want a jacket that will actually protect you from most accidents, waterproof and durable then second hand Rukka is hard to beat, it's not stylish though.
