What do superheroes and Little Red Riding Hood have in common? The Cape. I know its been hard not to miss the return of the cape, in fashion editorials, celebrities and on the racks at some of your favorite shops. You will see in the following inspirational trend images below that the cape can have a certain attitude depending on your look - the urban/bohemian/sophisticated woman - will it be making it on to your must have fall list?
Truthfully I don't know if it will be on mine. I tried one on at Zara this past weekend and maybe it was the jeans and top I was wearing, but for some reason it looked like I had just thrown a big blanket over me, not a flattering look on me or anyone for that matter. I do believe that just like any coat that it may take time to find the right one, but when you do it could be a friend for the cold fall days ahead.

Yes- I'm dying for a cape! Although, I've found it hard to find decently priced ones. I'm going to check Asos though, after seeing your pic.

I would go with a sophisticated black or khaki Cape.
I'd choose a sleek black or camel-colored cape if I found one that was flattering on me. I'm the same as you - the capes I've tried on so far don't suit me, and I don't see them working on anyone really. But perhaps that perfect one is still out there waiting for me to find it...
i definitely have a thing for capes and i have for awhile now, but they really do require a particular kind of weather. it has to be just the right temperature. but, i'm happy they are so readily available this fall. i will be busting mine out for sure.
