WTF Spotting: The Clear Capelet

Written by Elizabeth Mitchell

Couture soccer moms everywhere are totally wigging out for the clear capelet!

I’m sorry ShopBop, I love you, I really, really do. But I just can’t get behind a $355 CLEAR couture capelet that adds absolutely nothing to an outfit. Sure it might look mildly decent on one of your models at a fancy photo shoot, or even strutting down the runway where weird fashion actually works, but in real life, this shit isn’t going to fly. The only thing it reminds me of is soccer moms and clear ponchos. And we all know, that’s not exactly the most fashionable combo ever (unless you’re Victoria Beckham, then maybe). I probably wouldn’t even shell out a $10 bill for this thing, would you?
