Cold Weather Essentials : Cape Coat & Blanket Scarf

When it is below 30 outside, the best bet is to wrap ourselves in warmth. A big, warm, blanket scarf does the job nicely. The plaid pattern somehow makes it feel even warmer, just by looking at it!

The cape is the 'it' outerwear for this season. Although it has been in existence forever - hello Snow White! - but this year specially it has come back with a bang! I love the fluidity and the casual sophistication of a cape. This Ann Taylor one is my favorite as it has an option of buttons and belt to give a more structured look too. This Michael Kors cape is another great alternative.

I am a big fan of cape coats for winter. But it is not always easy to find a great cape coat that is billowy and loose yet doesn't make you look lost in all the volume. Until this week when I finally found a great cape that is actually a mix between a belted coat and cape! Ann Taylor Buttoned Up Boiled Wool Cape was a love-at-first-sight for me. It is perfect for layering on top sweaters, with jeans or dresses and it is pretty light weight yet warm. It is true cape style but cinches at the waist with a belt and buttons up at the front for a more polished look. BTW, on the website the color looks smokey gray but in person it has more blue in. I love the color though, not Navy nor black, just a midnight blue/black that goes with everything! If you are looking for a cape, this is it!
