Need outfit suggestions

Kitty · Hermes

I'd probably just pair it with a long sleeve shirt and jeans. Do you think you will take it off while inside? or is it something you'd wear throughout the day?

Suasoria · Chanel

Is there supposed to be an image?

I think of a cape as working with more feminine outfits, so I'd wear it with a dress, especially a sheath, or a pencil skirt.

LoMish · Kate Spade

I'd pair it with a thin turtleneck, long sleeve top, or long sleeve blouse. Do you have a pic of the cape?

greendiamond · Marc Jacobs

Sorry, I thought I attached it before.... oops. It's this one, but in black.

I like the idea of it over a sheath. I do have a nice charcoal gray one that I rarely wear.

Boots · Gucci

I could see it working over a sheath. Maybe also try it over cigarette pants or skinny jeans to balance the volume on top?

Escrime · Kate Spade

I have a cape that I love. I wear it over skinny jeans and slim pants and usually a simple top, a turtleneck or slim sweater. I have also worn it with a skirt and boots and tights, again, keeping the top simple and streamlined, and it looked good with a pencil skirt.

I don't wear it with a dress very much as someone at the office called me florence nightingale when I wore it with a sheath (both black), so I always felt self conscious about it.
