What to Wear Wednesday!

Let’s talk capelets.

You read that right – CAPELETS.

Now. I don’t own one, but I think the trend is suggesting a growing capelet population, and I think they are rather charming, in an armless-ish sort of way…

Which brings me to a question… what exactly IS a capelet?

It depends on Google, and what words the retail-ites decide to use to tag their product. No really. A short jacket with roomy sleeves, might also be tagged as “capelet”. A sleeveless piece without a front opening (say, a shrug or shawl) may be also be labeled a “capelet”.

Then there is the issue of length. At what point does a capelet become a cape?

I actually could care less. I am liking the trend toward capes these days too.

Regardless of the specifics… one thing is certain – there are some pretty fabulous “capelets” out there… regardless of sleeves, buttons or length…

I can see me wearing this while holding a microphone.Taking charge of a room. A hooded capelet on Etsy.

This would be a capelet with sleeves. Chic, yet not too chic-ee…

A man capelet.

A jacket-y capelet.

And the most charming capelet of them all…

Can we all just take a moment and give the above capelet it’s due praise. She is a piece of art. Linger… I can just feel her resting on my shoulders… can’t you?

And shoes. Don’t forget the shoes.

Now. If you’ll excuse me. I need to go find the lint roller. Dog hair and yoga pants don’t mix. Ah, reality. You’re just always there, now aren’t cha…

Keep up on the ridiculous, the insightful, the always digressive…
