I hope you had a great weekend! I rarely go to the movies, but saw Selma on Friday with my parents. It is a very powerful movie with great acting and I highly recommend it! I'm glad I had the opportunity to see it with my parents as it was so fascinating to hear their perspective on the events of the movie which took place while they were in high school/college.
I've wanted a cape for a long time, but have struggled to find one that fits my 5'2 frame and my budget. I actually saw this cape on a lady at my salon but didn't have a chance to ask her where she got it. Imagine how excited I was to find it at Zara!
There are two things I've found that help prevent this cape from overwhelming me.
1. Keep your pants, skirt, etc. in the same color family to prevent the cape from cutting you off.
2. Wear the cape with heels to look taller.
Thanks for reading and have a great day!

Zara is the best! I love that chic cape with the striped turtleneck. I need a good striped tee and that seems to be a favorite!

Love the cape! You look so classy and elegant. I haven't seen Selma, but hearing more about it during the awards last night made me want to.

Your cape coat is marvelous and looks wonderful with that hat also. So chic and on trend, Nicole.
ReplyDeleteI love this cape on you! I haven't found one I'm head over heels for, yet. I keep forgetting that you're only 5'2' -- your heels make you look so much taller. You have an amazing shoe collection!

I'm 5'3" so I have the same problem with capes and ponchos. I love them, but I just can't seem to find any that work. I absolutely love how you styled your cape. And that hat looks really good on you.
ReplyDeleteCapes are totally your thing!! SO glad you found the right one for you!! Hope to see a lot more of this cape in your future. With this cold weather, its another great layer to add!! Cute hat too Nicole!!

Great cape and I love your tips. I am 5'3" and things like that can be over whelming on a small frame but you pull it off like a boss lady! Great look!

i have been to 4 zaras and havent found that amazing cape that is on sale! you look divine
ReplyDeletehope i find it!
Hi! Thanks so much for your tips on wearing a cape for us shorter people! I've been wanting one for awhile but think I may look a little bit ridiculous in one, in Houston! Though, I may just cave in and get one. You look adorable in it, and if I happen to see one at Zara, I may just cave in and buy it!
ReplyDeleteJyoti @ whatjocraves.com
cool bag!
ReplyDeleteLove this look on you! I still haven't found a cape that I love but you've inspired me to keep looking!
