The Cape Blazer

Cape blazers are all the rage and it seems everywhere I turn I see them. Granted, not this week because NYC is pulling this awful joke called single digits with windchill which is causing everyone looking like a shapeless woolly mammoth, but before that, everywhere. The majority I have seen have slit sleeves and lightly padded shoulders to give them structure.

I have seen them described as an update to the classic blazer but I am on the fence. I think if you have the right attitude and style the cape blazer in a certain way you can kill this look, here are a handful of fashion bloggers and a few street style photos of girls who rock the cape blazer:

I do not think this trend is going to be around for year’s to come and because of that if you are going to pick up this trendy piece I think the Nasty Gal Champagne Taste Cape Blazer is the best way to go. It is only $68 and available in a variety of colors, navy, black, and red:

What do you think of this trend?
