Yes, we’re in the thick of summer but in some parts of the world it’s still cool. Cool enough to rock a khaki cape. Don’t believe us? Check out Victoria Beckham and Erykah Badu, who were both spotted over the past week, wearing the same Junya Watanabe Comme des Garçons Cape Style Trench Coat. Victoria was seen wearing the coat as a dress, paired with black Giuseppe Zanotti suede platform booties, a rose-gold Rolex watch and Victoria Beckham sunglasses, while strolling through LAX Airport. She was on her way to London for the Viva Forever! press conference. Erykah also recently wore the cape trench while performing on stage at the Hammersmith Apollo in London. She rocked her cape with orange pants, black booties and a tan fedora with a little side pony action.
While it’s not appropriate for East Coast weather (hello 103 degrees!), it’s still a chic option to buy now and store for later. And it’s on sale for $439, down from the original price of $1,775, so you’d better snap one up, quickly!
Which lady rocked it hotter: Victoria or Erykah?

Now this is a tough one. I love how they both styled it. That trench is so versatile. It really shows how you can dress it up or down. Personally, I’m more of a rock star so I would have worn it the way Ms. Badu rocked it because it’s truer to my style and I must try the trench with bright colored jeans and booties this Fall. BTW, I love your instagram photos and thanks for following me on instagram!
Agreed! It’s hard to pull it off as a dress, like Victoria did. Thanks for your comment!
