Lauren Moffatt – Cadet Cape – $385 (Military inspired cape is made of 100% Navy Wool. Trimmed with red piping)(above)
When in NY a few weeks ago, my very fashionable friend Amie Robinson mentioned that she had gone to the showroom of a cool new designer – she was raving about this designer’s clothes and showroom. Amie has great fashion instincts so when I got home, I immediately popped onto my computer and had to look up clothing designer Lauren Moffatt. Amie was of course right…Lauren’s fall collection is indeed awesome.
In particular, I love Lauren’s outerwear which includes a cool plaid bomber jacket and 2 great navy capes with colorful trim. These coats inspired today’s post…piping and plaid in fashion and in home decor and furnishings too!

Had a small group over my house this weekend…even though it was just wine and cheese, I had to have the plaid plates for my table. I bought 12! They are a good price too and great for outdoor or indoor entertaining.
Thanks Amie for turning me onto Lauren…I think I must have the bomber jacket for fall!
Readers, anything here strike your fancy? Or any other trend you like for fall in home decor or fashion?
Hope you have a great Monday!

love it all, but i think i prefer plaid to stay in my fashion pieces:)
Love this post. It is so “fall fresh”. The Lauren Moffatt bomber jacket is so classy AND hip. I also can’t get enough of the crispness and beauty of black furniture with white/ivory piping.
My mother bought a sofa in the late 70’s that’s a dead ringer for the Brookside sofa from WSH. She said it was a fortune at the time, but she had to have it along with 2 chairs in the same style. 30 years later, that furniture has been re-upholstered in everything from brown velvet to some kind of nubby tweedy thing to the current fabric… a solid white. It’s striking, simple, timeless. And I ask my mother all the time “When are you going to give me those?”
Piping cool, plaid not so cool. Plaid reminds me of recliners.
My favorite pic here is the one of your couch..I LOVE the pillow in the middle-have my eye on one identical from My Sparrow…Great inspiration XOXO
Wow. Are these pictures indicating that plaid is making a come back? Yikes- I’m not sure I’m ready for that. But I love the jacket 😉
