The Limited – Scandal Collection: Plaid Cape, Dolman Wrap Coat, Funnel Neck Tweed Jacket

I’m not in need of any coats but I had to try on THE coat. The Tweed Jacket also made me curious as well.

~ Plaid Cape, Medium ~

I just need a pipe. I felt very Sherlock Holmes-ish in this cape. I loved it but it ran really big. I would definitely size down at least one size. Gigi said she’d get a Petite Small and I think that I probably would too. 

I liked the plaid though this isn’t a heavy cape. It’s very lightweight and definitely not for cold weather. I can hear Husband now, making all kinds of jokes about this cape. I know someone will rock this cape, but it won’t be me.

THE COAT. And another version of The Coat. I loved the feel of it on, so very cozy but it ran big. I would definitely size down to a Small. I was swimming in the Medium. I like the Tulip bottom of the coat as opposed to the straight line around on the other coat. Also, the sleeves are 3/4-length so this isn’t really a good winter coat. I know it doesn’t go with the show, but I think black would have looked very nice. Though that wouldn’t have been very Gladiator/White Hat, would it?

The Dolman Sleeve…

I really loved this jacket. I think the Medium was a little too snug on me, but I would still say this runs TTS. I would probably go with a Petite Large to give me little more room in the arms and shoulders. Alas, I have no need for a jacket like this. I have so many blazers I already need to wear adding this to my closet would just make them jealous. 
Which of these coats from the Scandal Collection to you prefer?

    I just can't do the cape…and I have seen some gorgeous ones. The coat has way too much collar for my girls. The last is very striking on your bod.

    That wrap coat is like a big hug. It's good seeing the cape on you. It's still Sherlock Holmes-y. I think the cut could've been a little different to make it more manageable, therefore easier to justify. Excellent point about it being lightweight. That/s definitely a plus. Thanks for the link love!

    I can't endorse the cape; much as I'd love one, I gave yet to see one look good on someone who is tiny, but I love that last coat on you – that looks amazing! I don't love the wrap coat (I am sure I am alone on this!). I think it works on kerry because it's freaking expensive fabrics on the show, but it is a bit too thick for my taste at the Limited. However – the small might make a huge difference!
