How to Style a Cape & Love It

Hey guys. How was your week?! More importantly how’s your Saturday? Hopefully fabulous.

AND I’m about to make it even more fabulous.
We’re discussing CAPES today.

Have you seen capes studded throughout the streets lately? If you haven’t you’re going to right away.

Sometimes trends can be worn on the runway but hells NO in real life. However, with this trend, it’s entirely cape-able {Ha..ha..}.

Okay let’s get to the goods.

How to Wear a Cape:

*cuz duh, we’re superheros*

SOOO, first things first.. don’t be scared. No you’re not going to look weird and capes are not ponchos.

There’s something regal about wearing a jacket over your shoulders. I mean seriously, check out Gigi…. #DIVA:

With CAPES, they take the awkward shoulder balancing out of the equation. It’s structured and fitted to hang perfectly. I am dying over the chic black Armani tuxedo cape below. And that pink cape dress!? So cute.

For those of you sporty girls, check that white summer cape romper and also the navy button cape vest. Lovelovelove!
If you’re unsure and don’t wanna splurge, H&M has one for $99. It’s perfect.

Lastly, omg the white cape, black bralette and white pants… Does it get any better?

All in all, find the perfect staple cape for everything. Do a neutral, maybe white or black. But if you wanna step it up, a cape dress is show stopping.

How to Style It:

+ Thrown over jeans and a t-shirt racing to the kids soccer game.

+ Heading into a meeting over a pencil skirt and collared button down.

+ With a bralette/crop top and pants for martinis and dancing.

+ Paired with silky pants and a clutch for dinner out.

+ With skinny jeans, scarf & sunnies while running errands.

+ Over a jumpsuit at a restaurant with the girls.
