There’s something about a clear cape and Clair The Cape Queen’s been keeping dry during Mercia’s recent rather wet weather. This cape – one that’s ideal for going to the shops in – is quite heavy and it’s not entirely clear, its more ‘foggy’material giving …

Here’s one of The Cape Queen’s most recent buys: it’s a 1960s/1970s cape bought from ‘that’ auction website, and it was offered by a Scandinavian seller. Clair loves it because it exudes a proper old-school raincape look. Like it or not, today’s offerings just don’t …
