 YES TO CAPES.
yes.
yes.
yes.

This isn't really a classic cape, but it's meant to be worn as such, or at least I assume so because it's a strange, non-rectangular shape (which isn't apparent in these photos). I've never felt more elegant or tasteful than when wearing a cape.
I would normally avoid wearing red at all costs (for a number of reasons), but I chose to make an exception (really, I did! Because this cape is reversible and I could have worn the gray side) because when I put it on, I instantly became Ultimate Matador Lady Extraordinaire!**

**minus the brutal and unnecessary animal cruelty.
