Today I am partnering with Banana Republic to talk fall must-haves... you know those classic pieces in your wardrobe that you come back to time and time again!? Well this cape suddenly became one of those pieces (it's available in two other colors too!). I absolutely love capes, shawls, wraps... whatever you want to call them this time of year. They are perfect for layering over basics tees for cool mornings or evenings. This outfit is the perfect look for fall football games, early morning errands or one of my favorite fall activities: visits to the farmers market. All the produce is at it's peak right now (omg, the apples! the tomatoes! the flowers!) and every time I go I officially want it all!

Right now I am obsessed with Kale Caesar Salads... so I always stock up on a big bundle of leafy kale to douse in Caesar dressing, parmesan and croutons. Then I'll do a few chopped tomatoes on the side. And I can't even keep up with the demand for honeycrisp apples in our house right now. The kids, husband and myself are all eating them non-stop. I've also got a pretty decent stock of squash on hand right now for meals (acorn, butternut, spaghetti, I can't stop!) What are some of your favorite farmers market finds this time of year?!

Speaking of must-haves for fall... these are a few more that are on my list: a leopard print sweater, a gorgeous wrap coat, I love this dolman sweater, leopard loafers, and how amazing is this bow tote with a phone charger built in!?!? I'm always thrilled to find that adding a few key pieces to my wardrobe each fall can breathe new life into the pieces I already own. Take for example a striped top and jeans that I have worn a million times - suddenly feel fresh and new when I pop on a fresh cape.
