Anyone who doesn't want to wear a big-top-circus-tent-cape must be out of their mind.
What's not to love?
You can wear as many layers as you like underneath - perfect for our sunny but very brrrrrrrrrrrisk mornings - it has a hood, it's long, it's got huge colourful stripes for feck's sake and well, it's simply the shizzle don't you think?
The cape was yet another 1970s bargain snapped up last week at Aid for the Blind's half-price sale - $4.
Bingo!

Headband - more at Sassy Vamps!
Spiked headband - from FB friend, Queenie

I think the cape is one helluva tah-dah, so I'll be linking to Lakota's Tah-Dah Tuesday this week:).
See you in the big top!

That is one GLORI-ARSE cape, my rockin' pal! Anyone who doesn't look at that with supreme envy is one greige-wearing dullard! Loving the new Sassy Vamps creation teamed with the spiked headband and the trademark double-bagging! That nail paint is gorgeous! xxxxxxx
ReplyDeleteI now have that coat of many colours song in my head (can't recall the exact name)!
ReplyDeleteOh there is only one word "shizzle" for sure. That is the best Desiree find ever!!!!! It has been waiting for its day in the sun with the most gorgeous lady ever. Happy colourful candy stripe cape!!!!!!

ReplyDeleteJust when I though it could not be any more specTACular... it has a HOOD!!
I'm pretty sure your cape and my dress were separated at birth (http://www.misfitsvintage.com/2011/06/international-congress-of-oddities.html)
If there were ever a reason for us to organise a Port Mac blogger meet up - it just might be to get our two circus items together!

Girl, you look good enough to lick. Actually, 'cause that cape reminds me of the awesome melt in your mouth sugar sticks my Grandma used to buy. And I'm totes pinning your Arm Party because I want to have one just like it :)
ReplyDeleteI cannot get over the fabulosity that are your leggings!
ReplyDeleteI love the cape with all the black & white underneath. Actually jealous of all the circus paraphanelia you come up with. Nothing like this shows up in my local thrifts.
ReplyDeleteA cape of wonder indeed, but I can't take me eyes of your scrummy legs in Black Milk! Fecking stunning.xxxx
ReplyDeletethis is amazing, though only you could pull it off, being the circus diva that you are. you would've loved the Insect Circus! More sexy and amazing leggings too!
ReplyDeleteI'm afraid too many of us would look like a three ring circus in that cape - but it's perfect on you, you cutie. Totally enamored of the floral headbands, as well.
ReplyDeleteSo Aid to the blind is were old circus stuff lives, I'll remember that. Talk about one-of-a-kind! I want winter to get here, I miss layers. Love the beaded bracelets
ReplyDeleteI haven't popped by for a bit and I'm so delighted that I did to see your cape. Fantastic! Just like you :-)
ReplyDeleteYou seem to be a wonderful Lady!
ReplyDeleteyou look so incredible!!! that cape is amazing~
ReplyDeleteI love this outfit so much! I can't believe I've only just found your blog because your style is amazing. Great cape! xxx
ReplyDeleteWoweeeee!!!!!I'm looking at your pix and thinking you're like a victorious Olympian wrapped in the flag of Carnidom, having won gold - yay!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteDelicious - also I love those beaded bangles oh yes.
That's the way to do it! (Do you have Punch and Judy shows where you are? Reminds me of a P&J booth) Fab!
ReplyDeleteAnd love the bangles too. x
I can't believe that piece-of-heaven tent was only $4! You are absolutely superheroic here, especially with that Sassy Vamp crown - appropriate for the She-Ra of Shizzle Style.
ReplyDeleteYou are glorious, Desiree! Love the mix- the color- the cra-azy!
ReplyDeleteAnyone not mugging you on the street to get a hold of that cape is insane! That cape is absolutely freakin' amazing, and it is perfect for you.
