I never really plan out what I'm going to buy ahead of time, I'm an awful impulse buyer. But one thing I'm setting my sights on this fall is a cape or capelet and I don't care if it makes me look like Madeline or like I'm nine again. I think they look and feel so parisian and cute so here are the one's I've got my eye on this season.
While it may seem rather plain and boring I love this modcloth.com version because it's simple and classy.Ps. If you havn't checked out modcloth yet you should tons of decently priced cute clothes, although I havn't bought anything from them yet I've heard good things.
I don't mind that this Anthropologie one is all Sherlock Holmesy, I think thats the appeal for me. I've always had a thing for houndstooth and pipes. Availablehere.
While not exactly along the lines of what I'm aiming for I just like this Laurie B. sweater from Piperlime because it looks comfy and roomy (read: you can smuggle anything you want under there and no one would ever know).
Found this surprisingly cute version in an etsy shop called encouragementaward. If you havn't taken the time to explore etsy you should. Its the online version of a giant craft mart you can lose yourself in.
And again found this really decently priced cashmere version in yystudios etsy shop. Available here.
After a bit of reflection I realized that each fall I usually obsess over something until I find the perfect and most affordable version. Last season it was a pair of boots and now its the cape. What have you set your sights on this fall?
