Nothing seems more fall to me than plaid. So I was excited to style this new plaid flannel shirt with the warm brown suede skirt for a fun autumn look. The warm earthy colors in both  pieces pair together so nicely, they make me want to pick up a Pumpkin Spice Latte or some other equally basic drink.

Because bare legs aren’t always possible I decided to style the flannel a second way with a poncho too!

If loving a poncho/cape is wrong, I don’t wanna be right.

I have been on board with this trend all fall and winter long and just love how versatile they are. This color blocked version is my alternative to the Burberry Cape that made the rounds this fall. I wasn’t about to drop that much on something so trendy but still lusted after it. Luckily I found an alternative that won’t break the bank. The best part is you honestly feel like you’re wearing a blanket… and sometimes I wear it over my pj’s at home when I’m cold. Now I just need to get my initial monogramed on it.

Hope you have an easy Monday – thanks for reading!

I can’t even tell you how into capes I am right now.  I mean… have you seen the Burberry cape taking street style by storm?! I went with a more Gwenth Paltrow/Lupita Nyong’o approach with this structured one, but I’m dying for a monogrammed blanket cape.

What I love about the blazer cape hybrid is they can go with anything. Get ready to see this one on repeat and stay tuned for more.

I’m really loving capes and ponchos but they’re a little hard to find so I made sure to snatch this one up as soon as I spotted it. As I mentioned Friday, I’m all about 90’s trends right now. What better way to embrace them than my “vintage” Dr. Martens from 1996? Luckily my feet stopped growing in 6th grade and my mom found them in my closet or I never would have had authentic combat boots to sink my feet into.
