when i posted this vince poncho before, a number of readers suggested different ways of styling it. it did pique my curiosity and i decided to do 1 poncho and switching around accessories to diversify the looks. i'm also going to share the "fashion police hubby style" comments my husband made as i interchanged things around.
we are going out tonight to celebrate my son's 8th birthday and he has given his preference for italian and pasta. he must be craving carbs, and if i'm to eat what he wants to order, this poncho will help.
look 1, a simple, clean look: "you're wearing a poncho, honey"
look 2 with a faux fur snood (american eagle, old, similar here): "this is like a martha stewart look but funkier."
look 3, with a statement necklace (a-thread, here): "babe, if your shirt is a button down, is it all right to undo the buttons at the collar?"
look 4, with a belt (hermes): "okay. now this is too different. i liked it loose."
outfit: poncho, vince, here - similar here, here, here; blouse: joe fresh, old; leggings, zara, here; shoes: zara.








I really love the first three, not so keen on it belted but more than anything I wish I was young enough to wear those leggings.

thank you so much Ellie - i was reluctant to get them at first, but they are incredibly versatile. xox
DeleteI love the first look the best. Very effortless and chic.
ReplyDeletethank you so much STG!!
DeleteHappy Birthday to your son! I love the styling of the last two. Although I know the poncho is meant to be worn loose, the belt ties everything and it looks sleek. Also, love the necklace, btw. :)

thank you so much W! i can't take credit for the belt - a few readers suggested it, and it is definitely a great way to make this top look very different. xox
DeleteARGH still need to pick up those leggings - only YOU can look hot in a poncho! I actually really like it belted! I like all the ways - the fur collar one works surprisingly well (I wouldn't have thought of that) but I don't think I could pull that off :P
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday to the kiddo!
lol you're so sweet E! we should have gone to zara when you were here!!
Deletethanks for the bday wishes - he read these posts, and was really happy to see them!! xox
I actually really like the belted version! It gives it the dolman sleeves and gives you two styles out of one piece!
