Blanket Capes

One of my favourite garments that came from Burberry's Runway was the Blanket Cape. I just love the design and pattern of it! The cape will set you back a staggering £895 and to get up to 3 initials on; that my friends, is an extra £200. Now if you're like me, a student working in a retail shop, i can probably guarantee that you won't be able to afford it (Another thing added to the wish list)

I've been doing a bit of online window shopping to try and see what the cheapest alternative is:

I actually saw this blanket wrap in a magazine a few weeks ago and I immediately went in to the shop and bought it. Although on the first day of wearing through Sunderland Town Centre, three people did ask me if I was wearing a blanket .... I guess they're kinda right as it is called a Blanket Cape but I couldn't help feeling a bit embarrassed.
But aside from that, it keeps me warm during lectures at UNI and on cold mornings to work. Personally, I would team it with:
