Cool Weather Chic

"April showers bring May flowers". Well, it seems that this May those April showers have just brought along even more showers and cool temps. It's been raining and overcast almost every day for the last 3 weeks! Where is the sun??!!  Ok, so maybe it's too soon to break out those cute summery 'fits, but that doesn't mean one has to sacrifice style. In fact, it's a prime opportunity to get more use out of those fabulous capes, sweaters and wraps every fashionista loves.

Featured here, is a heather gray cowl neck cape from one of my faves, iT Factor Boutique (www.loveitfactorboutique.com). To switch things up a bit though, I chose to wear it as a boatneck. A neutral colored belt was added for a subtle contrast,  as well as definition. Of course, my favorite distressed skinny jeans are never too far away, and add a bit of comfort to the vibe.  The nude open-toe laceup over-the-knee boots, on the other hand, bring an element of "funky". The overall effect is a casual comfort chic, perfect for an afternoon out.
