Gone To Cape Town

When I think of capes I think of Little Red Riding Hood, or a lost dame in the middle of the woods. It's almost costume like to wear a cape. But this season getting cozy doesn't get prettier than cocooning yourself in a drapy warm cape. Throw a chunky knit one on, with a pair of jeans to protect yourself from the cold when running around town. Or go demure by wearing one with a tie bow at the neck. Wear this fab trend in fur, over a fitted dress and heels for a romantic night out. If you prefer a funkier look, go for one with a plaid print and sport it with your jeans tucked into your boots. Classy gal? Grab some wide legged trousers which are all the rage this season and pair it with a beautiful creme colored wool cape. Want to rock your look like a hot celeb? My preferable choice is just as Anna Sui sent it down the runway, worn as a dress! Slide some leggings or tights on and your brand new fall boots to rock this look. You'll be sure to snag some envious glares.

Whichever way you prefer to wear your cape, long or short, classy or trendy, you surely won't look like Little Red Riding Hood. Instead, you will sweep the town off its feet with your fashion forward ensemble!
