The Baby Accessory

Mom: Mary Carter
Daughter: Lucy Carter
Era: Early 1970s, England

The reason Piper loves it: I've gone through a lot of fashion phases, but I do like the costume-y look of the late '60s and early '70s. This mom wears a brown shawl and I found myself looking for something just like it. She also wears these big bug-eyed glasses that so many moms wore and are back in a big way now.
