Talbots Cape

This beautiful plaid cape from Talbots is special and warm. It was a very thoughtful gift from my mom and I love it! Thanks MOM!

This piece is so well made. It is lined and feels quite substantial, not flimsy. It has a sturdy hidden zipper as well as faux horn buttons that give it a retro feel. It also has deep pockets for that ever present cell phone and my warm suede gloves. I found a lovely hunter green turtleneck at Kohl’s and it picks up the green in the cape perfectly! Wearing a red or yellow sweater underneath would look fantastic as well.

The back of the cape is just as stunning. It flows beautifully without added bulk. Who needs bulk!? Right now Talbots is having a great Red Hanger Sale. Need I say more?

I wish you a Happy, Healthy & Prosperous New Year!

Stay Beautiful,

Beverly

Kate Spade Coat

Is winter over yet?  Not according to the groundhog community!  Which means I will be wearing this beautiful wool Kate Spade coat just a little longer.  The bow in the back makes it so adorable!  One of the benefits of winter, for me, is skiing  and the beautiful fashions...coats included!

The style of this coat is timeless. The details are perfect and you can dress this up with slacks or some black leather leggings.  The ruched black scarf is Talbots and the sunglasses are Gucci.  The denim leggings I live in are from New York & CO.  Kate Spade is truly one of my favorite designers.  Her items are very feminine yet timeless and her quality is fantastic.  This is one coat I will have and wear for many years to come.

Thanks so much for stopping by! I wish you a great week ahead!

Faux Real!

This is one of my all time favorite purchases!  Does this coat look like total luxury?  YES! But....it is FAUX FUR done to perfection! The black faux fur glows and has such great depth and movement.  At a fraction of the cost!  #WINNING!! This beauty is from the Pamela McCoy Collection.  Her faux fur collection is AMAZING!

The coat has a beautiful collar and sleeves that are ruched to keep you toasty warm.  The faux pelts are  horizontal, look so great and make you look taller and slim.  The length is perfect for more formal events or if its just to dang cold!  Two simple buttons at the neck and hook closures down the front along with two deep pockets complete the beautiful design.  I have this coat in faux brown mink too and my big regret is not buying it in the black and white chinchilla pattern.  What the heck was I thinking??  Maybe next time?

 An elegant yet fun clutch is what I have been carrying to all the holiday functions. "Naughty" on one side "Nice" on the other.  How cute is that? 

Pamela McCoy has a beautiful and extensive line of faux fur coats and I encourage you to look them up. They can be found at Evine.

Stay Warm!
