Color blocking is definitely a fun and expressive trend. In case you don't really know what it means, it's simply when you wear multiple solid colors. You can use your cape jacket to contrast it with another bold color. For example, if your jacket's black, wear a white long sleeved shirt underneath. Since your arms poke out of the jacket, the colors are easily contrasted, making your color blocking a success.
