At last, it is permissible to wear a blanket in public and look cool, not goofy like a snuggie.  Ponchos are WAY in and if that seems constricting, a wrap will give you the flowiness without the coverage.  If you aren’t too sure about this one, pick a color or pattern in safe tone like black and white or gray.  Seriously, there are so many options for color and style you can work this into your wardrobe.  I’m so happy I can jump in without feeling like I messed up; it’s that easy.

Pair a poncho with a turtleneck, collared shirt or scarf to keep the look updated and not screaming for a sombrero.

All the stores and I mean ALL the stores have ponchos of some sort in cool colors and designs.  Ponchos make great gifts as there is one for every budget.  Check out what is in around my hometown.

It’s like a cool blanket with the middle cut out for the head.

Literally a blanket with sleeves. Keep it classy with a sheer button down blouse. Note the fringe–so hip.

Combination of a wrap and poncho. Each “sleeve” can wrap around, or just one “sleeve” up for a dramatic look.  I tracked this lady down at the grocery store–she was that cool.

Nice blanket with slits for the arms. Love the contrasting denim on denim.  My friend modeled her Madewell wrap.

Gray on Gray structured poncho, sort of stands on its own. Banana Republic.
