Cold Season Style: Keep Cozy with a Chic Cape – Glam Radar

It’s that time of the year when you have to hide under layers of clothing once again. Fortunately, you no longer have to make-do with just jackets, trench coats and blazers. A revolutionary fashion idea for this cold weather is the cape, which you can style well with a handful of clothes and accessories. Here are some concepts on how to wear cape modishly.

Fit is Important

Capes can be very loose, so the best way to balance the look is to wear form-fitting clothes. Snug sweaters, wool leggings and skinny jeans are just some of the items that can add shape to the loose silhouette of the cape.

Top it with a Turtleneck

The turtleneck is an essential part for autumn and winter layering. At the same time, it is a great piece to wear with your cape, especially for styles that expose the arms.

Leave it Open

It might be cold outside, but for all intents and purposes, leave your cape open! This will give you the opportunity to show the fabulous attire you have underneath.

And when it gets nippy, it does not necessarily mean that you should leave it open. Belting it up can stop the cold from entering – whilst showing most of your trendy ensemble.

Bring out the Long Gloves

Short gloves might be the norm, but long gloves work best with capes. Not only is it fashionable, it is recommended for cape styles that reveal the arms (lest you want to freeze outside!)

Hats Off

Protect your head from the elements and look stunning all at the same time by topping your look with a haute hat. Whatever style it might be, it can be the chic cherry on top of your trendy cape.

Boots are the Best

Capes and knee-high boots are like Burger and Fries – they just go well together! With this pairing, you can look like a fashion model, fresh from the runway.

Go with a Top-Handle Bag

Because of the unique design of capes, they can restrict you from donning your favorite shoulder bags. Although this is the case, you can go around town with all of your important items by carrying a stylish top-handle bag.
