Capes are pretty trendy. But capes can also be pretty tricky to wear. Depending on the shape and length, it can swallow up your figure and be anything but flattering. But when I was invited to the Loehmann’s fall preview a few months ago, one of the items I found was an awesome Ellen Tracy cape.

I gave you the behind the scenes look two weeks ago and I can’t tell you how awesome but kinda weird it was seeing myself on television.
