Trend :: Poncho

Stella McCartney cozy poncho with hoodie

I have always love ponchos. Did a couple of posts wearing them here on the blog before and I can't get enough of them! To me they are perfect! Let see - beautiful flow of fabric, check. Flattering 3/4 sleeves, check. Able to hide the mid section bulge on the bad days, check. Add variety to the usual conventional sweaters, check. Plus they can be casual and some can be pretty elegant too. Me, I can do both.. I can do any type of poncho for that matter! Send me off to Mexico now ;) 

Boho at it's best! Etro casual poncho

  1. This reminds me that I have a poncho, a really nice one, that I've never worn... I refuse to get rid of it because I loved it at first sight, but haven't quite figured out how to wear it. It needs a turtleneck or something underneath (hate those) because the neck is too wide, and it can't be worn as outerwear. But I still won't get rid of it, I will find a way to make it work. one day....

    1. I know I hate layering with ponchos too.. try with a sleeveless turtle neck instead. Just my 10 cents :)

  2. When I was a kid, my mom knitted me a poncho (complete with pompoms). I don't have any poncho's in my closet now .. haven't seen any in my local stores (mostly see cape coats). I may have to get to internet shopping!

  4. Ponchos have been so big lately but I'm not honestly not a huge fan. I do love the photos you chose though - these styles are super chic!
