The mid-point of December is here today, which means we are one day closer to Christmas and one day closer to 2015. Wow, time has flown and perhaps it’s a good thing. Whatever the case, all I know is that the West Coast was hammered with monster storm and heavy winds last week. Given the drought the rain was much needed. I love the rain because it makes all things beautiful. I can sit all day watching the rain while sipping a cup of coffee.
I also love taking long walks the day after the rain because the air is clean, fresh and crisp surrounded by blossomming flowers and greener grass. We did just that after breakfast a couple days ago. I wore this over-sized cape during our walk. Yes, over-sized capes came roaring back this season! When I first saw it I wasn’t sure if this style was right for my petite frame because I thought it would swallow me in it. But I couldn’t shake off the image of the paisley pattern with the potential of coziness bundle. After pondering for almost 2 weeks I decided to pounce on it when it was on sale. To combat the bulky look I layered this cape over skinny khakis, cashmere turtleneck sweater and over the knee boots to complete the look. This cape is now my go-to out the door coat/jacket. For the the rest of December I will be wrapped with this coziness while inching my way into 2015.

That is surely how wear a cape now … you’re as lovely as a long stemmed iris, and the muted colors are wonderful. Such a easy-chic outfit.
