Caped Crusader


Wool Cape

Today's high of 75 degrees certainly doesn't reflect a normal Chicago autumn (but really, what is a normal Chicago autumn?). When fall does decide to show up again, the cape is an adorable alternative to lightweight jackets. Draping the bright solids or pretty patterns over the shoulders makes a simple statement ... and these pieces by Leslie Tessler swing stylishly from the shoulders. Perfect for brisk walks to work, or bopping around town on the weekends, these are investment pieces to last a lifetime (and I love the chic look book) ...

These quality pieces may be on the pricier side, but here are a couple of more affordable, but still adorable, options. This cream jacquard piece polishes any outfit, and this tweed cape with brass buttons adds a vintage vibe.
