Combo Pack: Capes and Sunglasses


Capes are in again.

Just let that sink in.

Capes. Are. In.

Now, I love a cape…they’re so drama drama. But I also think of capes as the coat of choice worn by my nana, who was no fan of excessive buttoning up.

Her logic in winter coating solutions was sound. Capes are one step from just getting out of bed and going to work with the comforter wrapped around your shoulders. And there ain’t nothing wrong with that, folks!

Unless you have a Snoopy comforter; in which case: come on, that’s just weird at your age.

The big question here is what sunglasses to use with a cape. You could go super clean line and make it a WWII look.

Or you can go super-girly and femme it up.

Or you can go edgy and use your sunglasses to take you straight into Fantastic Land with the Paul Smith style Foxley (shown above). Where is Fantastic Land, you ask? Only those in capes and the proper sunglasses truly know.
