If I'm absolutely honest, I want everything in this picture... but if we can't buy the lifestyle, at least we can invest in our very own studded crop top. Perfect for Christmas Parties.

Love, love, LOVE this beautiful wool cape by Reiss. Granted it's one of the more expensive outerwear options out there, but certainly one of the most luxurious, too, with it's double breasted button fastening, contrast trim and super-huge collar (perfect for cocooning yourself in on wintry mornings). The inky-blue hue is also to die for, giving this cape the edge in the sophistication stakes. Ama-zing.
