In honor of BatKid, I thought it only fitting to do a post of my favorite capes for winter. I can’t promise that you’ll be able to save Gotham City from destruction, but I can promise you’ll trick people into thinking you could!
And for all of you that think you couldn’t pull a cape off, let me give you a couple reasons YOU CAN..
1.) If I put enough effort into getting dressed and looking cute, the last thing I want to do is put on a frumpy coat to cover up all of my hard work. A cape is open enough so you can still see your outfit, but warm enough to not be a totally pointless piece of fabric.
2.) It doesn’t matter how much “winter weight” you put on, capes ALWAYS fit.
3.) Capes look great with a fancy dress or jeans and a tshirt.
I love the way one of my favorite blogs, Barefoot Blonde, paired hers with gloves. So cute!
Here are some capes that I’m loving right now… Enjoy!

The Asos printed one is by far my favorite! Any prints tho I’m a sucker for. Once again an item I would NEVER consider buying for myself miss Emily totally changed my opinion! Shocker! Haha. Btw all my Christmas lists include all Emily Maynard jewelry on them! Can NOT wait 🙂 I still totally have the real meaning of Christmas in my heart …but if people insist on getting gifts, they might as well be amazing jewelry I want ! Love you Emily! And your posts xoxoxo
I love the way Amber from Barefoot Blonde styled her cape also!! I have been on a hunt for a cape for a long time but I am definitely going to check out these one out!!
Have a great weekend Emily!

I have a cape jacket that I bought from Bloomies a few years ago that looks brand new and would fit in perfectly with all of your picks! You just inspired me to take it out of the closet again 🙂
