Guysss!
I’ve seriously been dulling.
You know when you come across a dope style picture and realize you have something similar but just cast it aside because you didn’t really see much potential in it? Yeah, that.
I know I might be a bit late on this but ponchos are my new cool thing! I love the boho chic vibes it gives off and even though its been worn for warmth in most of the pictures up there with boots and all, you can still make it work for our weather here.
I remember seeing a friend rock one during the last LFDW and I thought he looked absolutely cool (Yes, a He!)
Mine is a modified form of the original poncho – You know those really big drape like tops with spaces for your hands? You wouldn’t have called it a poncho right? Me too but after some research, I found out that they were just alternative forms (modified to be fashionable)
The traditional ones have just one opening for the head and some also have hoodies.
Capes are somewhat similar except they are like drapes with a fastner around the neck ( picture bat man in your mind) while wraps are the ones that look like just a really big scarf draped around the shoulder without any fastner
What do you guys think? I love the fringed ones the most though and the type in the sixth picture!
Would you rock this?

I absolutely adore the leather one…4th one. It's everything
Its miroslave dumas wearing it, I expect nothing but the best! I love it too but I'm not really a big fan of wearing leather or might just be the broke girl in me speaking
i have one as well but it is just gathering dust somewhere in my closet.

Bring it out!! Let's shoot ours together someday ^_^
yay would love to do that
I love capes, i thought i was gonna rock the blanket ones in Autumn/Winter but now that the cold season is almost over, i'll prolly settle for tassel ones that resemble kimonos for summer.

Anything with tassels earn an automatic cool point so I say YES to that!!
Beautiful!
The red and black is my favorite…

You should, I'm sure you would love it!

Hello Dr. Cassandra, I'll just wait to see what you do with this idea. In New York City where I am it is cold enough to justify wearing two ponchos at once. I own a poncho but it's a water repellent rain cape with a hood. Beats an umbrella. Unless your walking with a friend.
Lol 'unless you're walking with a friend". Haha!
I can only imagine how cold it gets over there!
The traditional ones were for warmth so you're right on track!
Thank you Mr B
Yay! I got a mention. Dude in the poncho right here. Though mine was a modified kimono.

Ehrm ehrm '_' ,_,
Sorry to burst your bubble Ed, I was reffering to someone else but heyyy, I'm sure you looked amazing in yours! Wish I saw you!
I'll go and roam your instagram for a picture now.
The Burberry capes are so gorgeous. I remember seeing the picture of Rosie Huntington-Whiteley wearing one on my Instagram feed and falling in love. xx
I agree but is it strange that I prefer the hobo looking type to these expensive looking burberry type? Lol
Omg I posted a photo of Blake Lively in that coat a while ago on Instagram! It is EVERYTHING.
