Were you just beginning to think about Halloween [1]? Yes? Us too. Then Angelina Jolie [2] stepped out in black lace, so subtly witch inspired, and we all at once embraced Fall — just like that. The actress and director was spotted with her daughters for a shopping trip to Kitson in LA sporting her usual silhouette [3]: a long, flowing maxi. But Angelina's Elie Saab outfit had added detail, including a cape overlay with leather accents, which took her neckline from standard lingerie to next-level sophisticated. Complete with her ladylike Céline purse, neutral Christian Louboutin pumps, and ornate, oversize sunglasses [4], this ensemble instantly became the chicest thing we could possibly throw on. Is a delicate black dress with a modest touch the one piece we're missing? Well, it isn't about to be, that's for sure.
