amazing find! vintage cape


I was looking through some boxes in the spare room and I found this! It is the most beautifully patterned cream vintage cape. 



I'm going to wear it with a tight plain black dress underneath and black tights, so the entire focus is on the cape. Obviously this could NOT be worn with something else patterned, that would be tragic!

 

I experimented with belting the cape at the waist and it actually looks really good, can't tell you how excited this makes me haha.
