This winter, comfort calls the shots as capes have become the new jackets. They're simultaneously chic and cozy and give your look a little extra drama. If you haven't noticed, I have been living in them this season (the latest seen here). They are super versatile and perfect if you are a lover of layers.

I like to keep my look little more understated to let the cape do all the talking. I paired this color block cape from Chicwish (that is only $50 by the way), with simple black leather leggings and a black turtleneck, and accessorized with, of course, a hat.

If you are looking to add an affordable blanket cape to your wardrobe, Chicwish has so many great options, like this Aztec print blanket cape and this black geo patterned cape. I also own this navy blanket cape, and it's been an outfit regular.
