skylines

19 October 2010 by Carolina Engman

Velvet Cape, Alexander Wang. Sheer white blouse, Weekday. Leather Skirt, Zara. Shoes, Jeffrey Campbell. Bag, Beacons Closet. Sunnies, Karen Walker.

WIND. I’ve been dying to get some use out of this amazing Alexander Wang cape that has been hiding in my closet for about two months waiting for the degrees to drop. It’s made out of the softest velvet material and drapes perfectly around your body. I thought it deserved some proper batman surroundings so I climbed up on our roof top for some serious swooshing around!
