Packing for New York was a bit of a nightmare, especially for people who have issues packing in general. I only knew one outfit head-to-toe that I wanted to wear while there and this is it. I was a little nervous about bringing heels to a city being blanketed with snow and daring to wear a cape in a frigid climate. Thankfully, New York clears snow like no other place that I have ever lived and my cape from Twitchvintage is amazingly cozy--like wearing a quaint blanket around all day. I would wear this cape nearly every day, but I fear that reptition kills the joy in things. Clearly, I am being overtaken with neutrals and yet it is my favorite outfit in months. I feel a lot more vintage hunting coming on...
A big thank you to Erin for taking these pictures for me and letting me borrow her gloves. 
Outfit details:
Twitchvintage cape
vintage feather fascinator
vintage white dress
H&M cardigan and tights
Seychelles heels
vintage gloves borrowed from Calivintage

Rebecca, these are absolutely beautiful photos, and the outfit is just perfect. The cape, the white dress, the whole thing is divine.
I am in utter love with this cape - I've had a grey ruffled number just hangin' around in my closet and now I think I shall try to create an outfit around it. Thanks for the inspiration!
awwww love the dress. and the cape - actually the whole look is perfection!!!! xxx
Doesn't Robyn from Twitch Vintage have the BEST stuff? I am totally in love with it, and totally want her to be my friend. This cape is awesome!
you look really warm and cozy! the cape is perfect.

I've been reading your blog for quite a long time, and this is the outfit that has finally prompted a comment...dear lord, it's as if all of the eastern European fairies decided to dress you for a day... exquisite...I'm just thrilled to know that this outfit EXISTS...!
The colors in this outfit are divine. They go so well with your coloring and hair! I'm a big fan!
You look very pretty! And I love you cape! ;-)
this is great. i feel like Im always catching posts of you in very vibrant colors, so this little mix up caught my eye. I really love the tones here. It all works. And your hair looks great!

The cape is just amazing ! I took your piece advice you gave me,to alywasy buy accesories that makes a statement and I've just posted the photos of my new goodies !
The cape makes the difference!It's really beautiful!Did you changed your haircolour btw?I love it!
you look so cute, and I love love that cape! It's fantastic!
wow that cape fantastic
way to rock the heels too, they look so high lol
Ooh la la! What's NOT to love about this outfit?!?!! That white dress is quite charming, and I really love the way you dressed it up! I think it's fabulous how the cape, your shoes, and your hair accessory match your brilliant red hair!
*love*
Thanks for sharing! :D
repetition does kill the joy in things! but i still can't help it..
That dress is so cute! And wow, you are SO brave for wearing that in NYC. During the winter, I never left the apartment in less than a long down coat--but I am also a bit of a wuss when it comes to the cold haha!

I absolutely love that dress! I can't believe you wore a summery dress in the winter, though, I would have frozen! I really need to get myself a cape, too :)
i love this look!

Packing for a trip is always a challenge for me as well. I usually start with my socks: how many pair will I need? And, then build from there. I either under-pack or over-pack, but never get it 'just right'.
As for the photos in this post, is the feather fascinator you're wearing the piece that you referred in our interview as "your favorite vintage" item (http://www.beso.com/blog/interview-rebecca-stice-the-clothes-horse/)
I've been dreaming of such a blankety warmer for such a long time... But I still think the dress is WAY more interesting than the cape in this post :) It's just wonderful.
The neutrals are all so lovely with your hair and that fascinator! What a lovely look, Rebecca!
xx
I love it!!!
This is such a wonderful outfit! I love that cape and your white dress is beautiful! I have issues packing too! But, don't you love how a huge snow store will hit New York and then it's gone the next day!
wow your dress is so beautiful and that cape.. words can not describe how adorable and magical it is!
great outfit
omg this person took my word ^^
i was jsut gonig to say you look seriously magical!
these photos are really some ofyour best
Wow, this is a favourite... that cape is... no good words for it... it's two steps up from amazing!
That cape is gorgeous, and such a great length. It doesn't overpower the rest of your outfit.

another fantastic outfit rebecca!
amazing amazing outfit! you look wonderful.
With the schizophrenic weather LA has been having (ie: hot, cold, or rainy. hot, cold or rainy.) I've been able to rock my two capes a bit as well. I'm afraid this one blows mine away though!
Fabulous head dress. And the white dress is so pretty and romantic – love it all!
I love that cape. This whole outfit is awesome. The last photo is amazing. I just love the ivory dress with the black. Beautiful.
Also, I don't know if I find repetition kills the joy in an outfit. I never really thought about it before. This shall be my new musing for the week!

Do you have a close up shot of your head piece? It has always intrigued me and I'd like to see the details. You look a little bit like a woodland creature in the big city.. maybe like town mouse country mouse. Cuuuuute.
Amazin outfit! And with the gloves it looks so (dark) lady like :-)
The cape is an incredible piece in and of itself, but the black cardigan with the perfectly fitting white dress and cognac leather ankle boots underneath it--an equally darling look! I love every detail of this outfit.
that cape is brilliant. And in the fifth picture your dress looks amazing :) xxx
Love your dress and in special your hair accessorie. In combination with your beautiful hair it is so stunning!
You look absolutely stunning! That cape is beautiful and I love how you matched that fascinator with it! Also I love that beautiful white dress and how you wore Erin's black gloves with it! Even your hair matches your cape :)
Hey, it's annebeth from chictopia :) I so so adore your cape and your lovely red hair! you always kind of look like a princess, but a grown up version! :D it inspires me to dream :)

i love that white dress. i'm going to need a white dress when i graduate from college (in two years.. ha) and this is probably the sort of dress i would love to wear. we'll see if i remember for that long.
i like the color of your hair.
Both you and that cape are adorable! I love the 3rd to the last picture.

That is AWESOME!
That dress is beautiful, who takes these photos though, outstanding timing.

These photos turned out really amazing! The way you styled this cape is perfect for the transition from winter to spring. I can definitely see you styling it completely different for fall, it's so versatile! Great look Rebecca! Also, not sure if you saw my twitter message or not but I'm moving to Seattle and visiting in July or August :)
Gorgeous cape! Perfect contrast with the white dress and black gloves.
This cape is marvelous, and I understand you would like to wear it all the time, but I agree with your reflexion: change keeps a bit of salt in life!
You look utterly beautiful, the cape is marvellous as are the feathers :)

Oh-my-goodness--this is, by far, my favorite outfit of yours. Ever. And I've seen quite a few! I have red hair, too, and I like seeing your color choices and the way they work in conjunction with the hair color. I really think having red hair is like having a whole new article of clothing to consider in an outfit...or maybe all hair is like that.
Anyway, I just began a fashion blog and I'm trying to find my footing in this giant blog universe! If you get a chance, check out:

Your dress is so adorable! I like the people on your cape, haha.
beautiful! such a contrast to your usual woodsy settings. :)
you are absolutely stunning! i love the last photo. So classy and beautiful. :)
The cape is fabulous! Bryant Park is a heavenly little place - gorg little photo shoot :)
oh my, your dress is so gorgeous!!!!!
I think that this is one of my favorite (if not my absolute favorite) outfits that you have ever put together.
The cape is ever so lovely as is the dress.
ABSOLUTELY LOVE!!!
the cape is so beautiful - great outfit rebecca!
your pictures are gorgeous and so is your outfit; very inspiring
Beautifully put together! I love the dress and gloves.
The cape is brilliant.
hehehe, i love that we totally chose the photos we took of each other over the professional photographer who shot us that day. ;)
You are the QUEEN of head wear. Is there a higher status? Goddess of headwear? No, Queen sounds better. I think one of the most interesting things about meeting everyone at the conference was to discover how shy we all are. What Irony. I am not sure if its the case with you, but I blog because I am socially awkward and it allows me opportunities to meet people and be social on specific, safe terms. I wish I had at least shared 5 words with you while in the same room. I guess a little smile and a wave says just as much sometimes though. In any case, it was so nice to meet you. I am sure you are just a sweet as you seem.
ahh you must be FREEZING in only the dress! looks great though
Gorgeous outfit. That cape is magnificent! I am also a fan of Twitch Vintage. :)
Pretty! White looks wonderful on you.

I could be eloquent but I think I'll sacrifice a bit of my dignity to say: Dude, that cape is legit!
Ah, fraternity boys, your hold has set in at last :]
In all seriousness, this is a wonderful outfit. Kind of whimsical but beautiful- the perfect balance!
gorgeous
loving the look
great and simple and chic
thanks for sharing as always
and thanks for the sweet comments, love it!

Oh my gosh, I adore this outfit and the pictures... but I can't decide which is more awesome, that cape or the fascinator!
Gawd I love that cape! All capes in fact, they look awfully fun to don on.
love the dress and the idea of the cape!! you look lovely
Wow, it must be freezing to have only the dress during winter! Love the cape!
aah you look gorgeous! that dress is amazing! and the cape...oh the cape. :D
can you guess what am I going to say? wonderful as always, and I hope I dont sound cheap saying that every time, but what to do when it is true. And, I hope you didn`t stay in short sleeves too long... have a nice week :)
oh dear, what a sweet dress you wore, love it!
Kudos on wearing heels in snow. Plus that Cape looks so adorable on you! :D
Such a stunning cape! And everything else is, as usual, perfect. You wear vintage very well, Rebecca. It's definitely your thing.(:
That cape is fabulous! I love ponchos but I think my heart really belongs to the cape. ITS AMAZING. I've been on the hunt for the perfect nomadal looking cape for a while now, but no real results within my budget! BOO. Your hair looks gorgeous in these shots too!

A cape! They've never really crossed my mind, but now I think it may be just the thing to complete my wardrobe. I love the lady like-ness of this with the gloves and the white dress.

Oh my goodness, that is the most perfect cape I have ever seen. So adorable. And this is coming from someone who is traditionally a cape hater.
Oh you are adorable!
