One Thing, Two Ways

If y'all read the postal service on capsule wardrobes, y'all volition retrieve that beingness able to article of apparel an exceptional multiple ways is absolutely key. Today I desire to demonstrate y'all a slice that wasn't on my wardrobe plan, but has turned out to hold out a cracking buy - the cape sweater. I don't fifty-fifty know if that is the correct cite for this light, soft, unloosen slice of goodness, but we'll larn amongst it.  

I flora this sweater when I was terminal infinitesimal searching the thrift store for something, anything to article of apparel on Easter (I don't actually produce pastels, too then I wanted a no-investment slice of pastel... I ended upwards with this). While patently non pastel, the sweater caught my optic for several reasons: it's grayness (fits correct inward to my color story), the stuff is real nice, too it was novel amongst tags. I purchased it, thinking it would hold out a cracking slice to laid aside for my side past times side pregnancy, whenever that is. The cutting is too then forgiving to the belly area, too would hold out actually flattering during the kickoff too quaternary trimesters. Also, nursing would hold out a cinch inward this transcend because of the unloosen bottom hem.

But... I've started wearing it around. And I'm non pregnant. There are too then many ways it works. In the kickoff outfit, I've layered it over a basic grayness sheath dress. Usually I similar a piffling to a greater extent than Definition to a greater extent than or less the waist, but something nearly this merely works. I mean value it may hold out that the mantle of the transcend gives the facial expression elegance. 

For the mo outfit, I paired it amongst a basic dyad of jeans too some platform (though nearly flatform) sandals. The fitted cutting of the pants balances the looseness of the top, too the sandals add together a piffling involvement to an otherwise real basic outfit. Indulge me for a infinitesimal (oh wait, y'all already are... ); I dear these sandals. I flora them on the clearance rack at JCPenny's inward December. For $6. They're non leather (you know how I dear my leather), but they are super comfortable, too I don't know, somehow merely right.

Though I accept alone shown it 2 ways (there is an halt to a 4 yr old's patience when taking pictures), I could accept paired it amongst white shorts too white leather sandals, flowy linen pants or a casual brusque (not likewise short, don't worry) white skirt.

Since this slice is too then great, I've been looking to a greater extent than or less for similar tops to recommend to you. This 1 is similar, but at that topographic point are alone 2 left too I'm e'er suspicious of "One Size." I also flora this one when doing a Google paradigm search; it turned out to hold out $795. Though flattered that I accept such elite taste, gustation doesn't pay the bills, too then I accept a 3rd recommendation. If y'all are interested inward finding a similar manner top, search on ebay for "poncho cape," "poncho sweater," "cape sweater," or "oversized sweater."
There are lots of reasonably priced options inward every size too color. Good shopping!

Have y'all purchased anything that has unexpectedly turned out to hold out a staple?
