caped crusaders

first things first, the real reason i am writing this quick little blog post is to tell say “bon voyage!” i’m taking off right after i finish this post to visit my family in southern california for thanksgiving. all i can think about is the delicious spread with turkey and cranberry sauce, mashed potatoes, gravy, and stuffing! i will most definitely be wearing a loose-fitting dress for the occasion.

in fact, the chilly weather combined with all of these gluttonous holidays has got me wishing for a cape right about now. i’ve basically been hanging around the house with a blanket across my shoulders most days. i probably wouldn’t mind if someone got me a snuggie for christmas. but seriously, how perfectly chic are these capes? just a bit of inspiration i’ve been running across over the past few weeks.

enjoy! (and i promise to put up all the photo credits complete with links later on tonight.) now i must be off!

  5. I love to wear capes, but I can nver seem to find any that aren't made for my size. I would love to find one that is more native influence.

    i love the idea of capes but i dont think they're very conventional for a daily outfit though .

    people will think i've been coming from hogwarts school of magic . haha..

  7. These are all fantastic! I have a vintage cape, but it's not very warm. I still need to get up the courage to wear it to school…
