The Aforementioned Cape

Jen has a feeling you were curious about the cape she mentioned in the first Paris blog. She found a picture of herself in it, posing in front of the golden gates of Versailles (you can't get more vintage than that!). So here it is. Cute, right? Especially over a tank and skinny jeans. It was chilly and breezy that day, so here she's got it layered over several jerseys--not exactly how she had planned to wear it. But it did in a pinch.

It's important to note that vintage boutiques often stock a rack or two of original collections from up-and-coming local designers who reflect the shop's philosophy. Jen has scored a number of quality, original, non-expensive items this way (she'll post another one soon), and Bridgett's designs are frequently showcased in such places. So even if you're not a total vintage freak, but love unique pieces, stop into your corner vintage store for a look-see. You never know what might be there.
