My second challenge for the Take10 Project is this camel cape from ASOS. I think we were all pretty excited to receive this. It's a beautiful piece that will work through many seasons. I see myself getting a lot of wear out of it with both dresses and trousers, I am a keen fan of swathes of volume so this cape gives me just that. And it has a certain Britishness to it in style, almost Burberry-esque, so I saw the traditional British Royal Mail Post Box as the perfect accompaniment. See below how the rest of the girls wore theirs - MJ ~ Sarah ~ Sabine ~ Sherin ~ Jazmine ~ Vicki ~ Adele ~ Jen ~ Ellie

I have this cape in black, but now I'm kinda wishing I'd braved the camel! I love how you've styled it as well
Gorgeous photos. You remind me of a Russian Princess.

I love how you've styled this, the shape of the dress is beautiful.
I love the camel cape with red. You with the red post box, Adela with the red phone boxes and MJ with her fab red lippy. xx
LOVE the hat! Beautiful cape from ASOS, a wardrobe staple for winters to come? xx
In the top picture, I thought you had an unusual hat with long ear flaps and pink bits on the end! I'm an idiot! You look lovely x
'twas an exciting challenge, and you make it look very sensual and elegant, Paula & I love that you wear it with a dress. xoxo
Fab-u-lous. My favourite look of the bunch - so elegant, so classic. And the postbox is perfect too! x
I have same amazing shoes! <3
Just amazingly pretty. You look like such a classic beauty in these shots, the cape suits you perfectly. I'm so happy you joined Take 10 :) xx
You look gorgeous!!!! Beautiful cape and love your dress and your hat... Oh I like all the outfit and the pictures!
I haven't seen classic camel work well on a very fair, cool-toned woman -- until now! I love how you've done it, with the sharp black and rosy red makeup for contrast. And your use of the setting is magnificent. I love the "she's vanished?!" effect of the picture with just the hat and gloves.
I think this is my favourite of all the looks for this challenge.
well-played!

I love this project. I have a cape very similar that I got last August from Topshop, and I love it.. it feels so much more special than a regular coat and the colour seems to go with everything!
Oh I love these photos! Polaroids & postboxes, gorgeous :)
I am in awe of how beautiful, elegant and poised you always look and the red lips and postbox WERE the perfect accompaniment :) Another gorgeous look my dear!

This looks gorgeous on you, especially with your furry hat! I'm loving seeing how all my favourite bloggers are styling these pieces for Take 10. Lovely!
Wow! You look so stylish! I love the hat! :) The cape is really nice as well!

You wear it beautifully!
I came across your blog via Pretty Much Penniless and love it, will definitely be following.
I love this cpe so much! I wish I owned it too =) x
Paula, I LOVE your dress! Yea cape is good too, but that dress is amazing! Do you know if you can still get it from Zara? I saw someting similar on Asos but I would rather get the original! :P
such a gorgeous hat!!! ive been looking for one like that for a while now- which is crazy because id never get to wear it here in oz, but i love the whole russian look. xo
You look AMAZING. That hat is awesome!
Yours and Jazmine's were two of my favourite looks - and what a great piece to style! I currently own about seven or eight capes. They are incredibly versatile pieces, and somehow add whimsicality to what on wears! I also love the whole idea here with the polaroid picture next to its subject. Oh & I'm always one for a fur hat!

Oh and if you don't mind me asking, how did you become involved in the Take Ten challenge?
I love how you wore this cape. I like the cozy hat.
You are so gorgeous, Paula!
Thank you all so much for the encouraging comments!
Fillipa - I bought it in the uk in Feb & saw it in Barcelona in Dec but can no longer see it on the website :-(
Roz - thank you! I loved Jazmine's too, hers was my favourite. And of course I don't mind you asking how I got to take part, I was asked a few months ago when another member dropped out. Although it's a shame when there is a dropout, I think it also keeps it quite fresh! This was only my 2nd challenge but it's fun to come up with a concept, sometimes on pieces you wouldn't necessarily choose for yourself.
you look amazing!
You make that cape look amazing, your look is definitely my favourite of the 10!!

Darling you look gorgeous in everything but esp this coat and that amazing Russian hat. I love it so much.
Sorry didn't get the chance to send you the package during the past few days but it's coming. x
Wow your gorgeous! These pics are so beautiful they could be cards! I love the hat and the camel cape!! =)
