Why wear a cape? It’s kind of a combo blanket/coat thing with a lot of movement. Knights wore them…Superheroes wore (wear?) them…and I cloak myself in them.
Capes protect you from the weather, conserve your body heat, conceal all kinds of things you don’t want everyone to see (read: too many Super Bowl snacks) and, frankly, they’re super chic.
I have a bit of a girl crush on the glamorous Ms. Hepburn.
Wearing a cape sets you apart from the crowd. In a sea of puffer coats, you (in your cape) will be the one who is remembered. I currently own 3 different types of capes.
Waist length ~
Mine // Bloomingdales // ASOS // Dorothy Perkins
Knee length ~
Mine – old // Overstock // Dorothy Perkins // Neiman Marcus
I love basking in the fabulous New Mexico sun.
Detachable capelet ~
Mine – Italy // JCP // Bloomingdales // SheCloth
If you’re not going to buy one ~ why not try making one?
Hepburn Inspired Cape DIY.
Audrey Hepburn once said “Let’s face it, a nice creamy chocolate cake does a lot for a lot of people; it does for me.”
Me too, girl…and that’s WHY I wear capes.
