The Cape: Still In?

I feel like the cape has been "back" for a couple of season now. But have you ever actually seen anyone wearing one? My guess is no... Unless you ran into some old lady who still thinks the poncho is an acceptable fashion choice. (Which it isn't, just in case you weren't sure.) And anyways, the cape is a whole other story. Chic and structured, these outerwear pieces are a great way to stand out in a crowd, even if they aren't too practical.

Trade in your trench for this Banana Republic Belted Tie-Front Cape. The hidden belt makes this staple more flattering by highlighting the waist. And for only $148, you can jump on this trend without putting off your rent check.







Cropped sleeves? Check. Refined volume? Check. Black, black and more black? Check. Hit three fall trends with one piece with this Susana Monaco Mock Cape. And you'll be surprised at how easy it will be to integrate this quirky little jacket into your wardrobe.












Is the cape too trendy for you? Still love the silhouette? This Michael Kors Cape Coat imitates the shape without the avant-garde attitude.
