The nights are getting colder and the weather is getting a bit chillier, so we\u2019re starting to think how to cosy on up in the fashion department whilst still looking stylish.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<br>\nThe solution? The blanket cape! We\u2019ve been loving the blanket cape trend that has been strutting down the runway for a while now. From Cara Delevingne&nbsp;to Olivia Palermo rocking the Burberry blanket cape, it\u2019s impossible not to want to try this trend out for yourself.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lovesales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/CELEBRITIES-BLANKET.jpg\"><noscript><img class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1596\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lovesales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/CELEBRITIES-BLANKET.jpg\" alt=\"blanket cape trend\" width=\"646\" height=\"485\"><\/noscript><img class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1596 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%22%20viewBox%3D%220%200%20646%20485%22%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E\" alt=\"blanket cape trend\" width=\"646\" height=\"485\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.lovesales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/CELEBRITIES-BLANKET.jpg\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Now it\u2019s very important to get this look right if you\u2019re going to go for it!

Choose a shorter length&nbsp;to avoid looking like you\u2019re dressing up as Zorro or Dracula. It&#8217;s getting close to halloween and you do not want to be mistaken for wearing fancy dress.<\/p>\n<p>2. Neutral colours in an autumnal palette. You may want to stand out with a bright colour, but you\u2019re wearing a cape. It\u2019s a statement piece all on it\u2019s own. Choosing a bright red colour may have you looking more Red Riding Hood than fashionista.<\/p>\n<p>3. Team with skinny jeans to emphasise the shape of the cape.<\/p>\n<p>4. Belt it. If you don\u2019t particularly like the loose comfy fit, cinch it in with a cute belt and show off your waist.<\/p>\n<p>5. Make sure you can move your arms comfortably. Practicality wins over fashion this time, find a cape which allows you to move your arms freely.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Designer Look, High Street Prices<\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3
