Shop The Trend – Capes Under $100 

At first glance you might think capes are too bulky or top-heavy. But thing again! Picture it: a classic cape draped over your shoulders and possibly cinched at the waist with a light belt, paired with a straight-leg pant and winter boot. It sounds comfortable, classy, and easy-to-wear to me.

I know the idea of this shape is hard to find flattering, but a cape can come in many shapes, sizes, and color combinations. I suggest browsing the trend on Pinterest or shopping your fave boutique to find the right fit and style for your wardrobe. I haven’t gone “all New York” on you already, but I’m digging a solid black cape for my chilly commute to work in the city.

This style is easily interchangeable. You can wear it by day or wear it by night and slip it on or off for cooler temps. As a blogger, I’ve learned that one of the easiest tips to offer readers is to play with layers. It adds creativity and dimension to your look. A cape is a super easy way to accomplish a beautiful layered look.
