I'm just loving your poncho,very stylish and chic,XXX </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-loving-the-poncho/page/2#post-1841248 Thu, 31 Aug 2017 16:03:57 +0000 Berkeley Girl 1841248@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Isn't it so pretty, Deborah? And, if it fits well, it will be a great addition to my wardrobe, since blush has become one of my key colors (I wrote about my recent style reboot here - <a href="https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fall-wardrobe-refresh-including-nas-finds" rel="nofollow">https://youlookfab.com/welookf.....-nas-finds</a>, and here - <a href="https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-%e2%80%93-style-rebootmy-week-in-outfits" rel="nofollow">https://youlookfab.com/welookf.....in-outfits</a> )<br /> and I'm picturing it especially over white jeans and also a pair of taupe velveteen jeans from The Wrap that I have my eye on this season.</p> <p>I agree, l proportions are everything, and that goes double for us petites. You do proportions so beautifully! </p> <p>While I was looking for the poncho I came across these lovely kimono sweaters, but they're both, ha, "one-size-fits-all" which is just such a lie, and a lazy way out of making actual sizes. Even so, there may be a way to proportion these so that they work on a smaller body... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-loving-the-poncho/page/2#post-1841143 Thu, 31 Aug 2017 07:45:09 +0000 Deborah 1841143@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Berkeley Girl that is lovely! The soft tone is beautiful. I really hope it works for you. I feel that petites can wear pretty much anything as long as we get our proportions right. xxx </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-loving-the-poncho/page/2#post-1841095 Wed, 30 Aug 2017 23:23:07 +0000 Berkeley Girl 1841095@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Deborah, I never in a million years would have guessed from your photos that you're 5'2"! I think your look (The Cat described it as "relaxed elegance," which seems spot-on) somehow just suggests a taller person. As a fellow petite, I'm impressed. Maybe I should be re-thinking what I could potentially pull off... :)</p> <p>I've added a poncho to my fall wish list for sure. The Anthro one is en route and I'm hopeful... but if it doesn't fit well, I've seen a cream poncho at a local boutique, and a taupe version in the Sundance catalog, so there are options.&nbsp;</p> <p>The poncho is sold out so it's not on Anthro's website anymore, but I was able to pull a photo from the email confirming my order.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-loving-the-poncho/page/2#post-1840915 Tue, 29 Aug 2017 23:42:04 +0000 Deborah 1840915@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Berkeley Girl, I am 5ft2 and small build too:) &nbsp;Fingers crossed for the poncho. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-loving-the-poncho/page/2#post-1840902 Tue, 29 Aug 2017 21:00:06 +0000 Berkeley Girl 1840902@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Agreed, Susie! A cashmere poncho should be a wardrobe essential! And I'm thinking how great it would be for an airplane travel outfit... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-loving-the-poncho/page/2#post-1840884 Tue, 29 Aug 2017 19:00:17 +0000 Susie 1840884@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Both the poncho and scarf look- and sound- perfect for you. I think everyone needs a cashmere poncho! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-loving-the-poncho/page/2#post-1840873 Tue, 29 Aug 2017 18:00:53 +0000 Berkeley Girl 1840873@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, Anthro's very light blush poncho was all out in petite sizes, but I've ordered the regular small, so we'll see. A piece like that may just be too voluminous for me in a regular cut (I'm 5'2" and have a small frame). But fingers crossed. It was lovely in the photo but I'm not finding it on their site at all now, and it was incredibly marked down, so it must have sold completely out. I'm guessing I only got that small because they had a return.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-loving-the-poncho/page/2#post-1840715 Tue, 29 Aug 2017 03:09:26 +0000 Deborah 1840715@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ariana, thank you.</p> <p>Berkeley Girl, Ooh Blush would be lovely.</p> <p>Isabel, thank you. &nbsp;I really like it. &nbsp;It's been a fab addition to my winter wardrobe. &nbsp;So soft I could sleep in it lol </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-loving-the-poncho#post-1840709 Tue, 29 Aug 2017 01:36:54 +0000 Anonymous 1840709@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Don't know how I missed this, it's brilliant. I've never seen a poncho worn this way and the layering makes it look completely different. I love the contrast with the leather, everything just the right proportions and fit, and love the softer colors. Very, very, lovely. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-loving-the-poncho#post-1840515 Mon, 28 Aug 2017 15:46:16 +0000 Berkeley Girl 1840515@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous outfit! Glamorous and sophisticated and still looks comfortable.&nbsp;</p> <p>A poncho is on my list for fall too. Anthro had a gorgeous blush one but I missed it. I saw a cream colored one yesterday that I'm thinking about... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-loving-the-poncho#post-1840512 Mon, 28 Aug 2017 15:41:30 +0000 Anonymous 1840512@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous!

Great look ! I really like the flash of grey, it is somehow both pretty and dramatic .<br /> I bought a poncho for the first time this winter . I really wasn't sure it was "me" - I don't Like too much drama or indeed clothes I have to fuss with. But it's really turned out to be a workhorse. It's perfect for Brisbane "winter" when a coat is too much but where I often need a jacket inside my office. It's usually colder inside in the day than out! I've used it so much that I would definitely consider an update to cashmere </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-loving-the-poncho#post-1838172 Mon, 21 Aug 2017 03:44:41 +0000 Deborah 1838172@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Bridgie, Im afraid you are right. &nbsp;Not sure my budget can handle too much cashmere, me on the other hand....</p> <p>Joy it is definitely too snuggly and warm :)</p> <p>Aquamarine, thank youxxx</p> <p>Thanks Brooklyn, how's the weather where you are? &nbsp;It is freezing here.</p> <p>Shevia, thank you. &nbsp;I have found I really like wearing the soft grey tones.</p> <p>Lol Peri, you honestly don't. &nbsp;You want to look like your fabulous self. &nbsp;You know I have long admired your style.</p> <p>Jill58 winter will be along before you know it.</p> <p>Thanks Janet. &nbsp;I know what you mean. &nbsp;I struck it lucky with these. &nbsp;They are about three years old now and as good as when I first bought them. &nbsp;</p> <p>Mirjana, thank you x</p> <p>Mainelady, thank you. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-loving-the-poncho#post-1838055 Sun, 20 Aug 2017 18:24:48 +0000 Mainelady 1838055@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your outfit is gorgeous and a nice inspiration for me, as our cooler months are just ahead. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-loving-the-poncho#post-1838052 Sun, 20 Aug 2017 18:11:53 +0000 Mirjana 1838052@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, fantastic outfit Deborah I like your style so specific and original. </p>
