In Search of: Capes




When I was younger I always wanted to be a superhero, well that or Kimberly the pink Power Ranger, but my dreams were crushed when I found out the only super power I had was never ending hula-hoop hips, which won me a few talent shows but didn't really go anywhere. Still, I would dress up with a blanket tied around my neck and fly through the house arms outstreached running as fast as I could.  Obviously those days are long gone, but I have recently been inspired by a revived fashion trend, capes.  This fall capes have arrived in full force and can be found in all sizes, shapes, lengths, and patterns allowing any woman to feel super.  So I need your help, I have compiled some of my favorite looks so far here but are there any other capes you've found that you are absolutely in love with?  See you all soon, I'm off to save the planet!
