Caped Christmas

I bought this 1920's tiered cape a few weeks ago, and Christmas provided the perfect opportunity to wear it and share it on the blog. The cape comprises of three tiers, made from the softest silk velvet, enabling it to swish about and generally make you feel rather glamorous. It kept me warm on Christmas day, worn over my Anna Sui dress (ss2007), which sadly only comes out on special occasions!

(Oh and half of these photos were taken at the start of the day, with fresh hair/make-up, and the other half were taken at the end of the day, after much merriment and food....hence the less than immaculate hair in some shots, and removal of the belt.)

My mum keeps telling me that red eye-shadow makes me look ill and/or tearful, but I rather like it! And below is my most treasured ring, which I got for my 21st birthday. Ruby is my birthstone (lucky me!)
