It probably is hard to take a bad photo in such a beautiful setting.</p> <p>CocoLion - I agree that seeing people wearing things in WIW's does help to create new outfits. &nbsp;This is what I have found so inspiring from reviewing yours and others WIW's.</p> <p>Pionkee - what a great tip to try the poncho with plum/cranberry jeans. &nbsp;As these shades are a big trend for fall, they could well be on my shopping list, thank you.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-poncho---travel-in-japan#post-1564647 Tue, 29 Sep 2015 13:25:54 +0000 Angie 1564647@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fun all round. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-poncho---travel-in-japan#post-1564645 Tue, 29 Sep 2015 13:24:38 +0000 lyn67 1564645@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, thanx for posting nr 1, too! Your poncho is very feminine in that soft pink(blush?) and think matched so well with the cherry blossoms, and YLF:-) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-poncho---travel-in-japan#post-1564618 Tue, 29 Sep 2015 11:25:30 +0000 Jaime 1564618@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful - you match the cherry blossoms. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-poncho---travel-in-japan#post-1564572 Tue, 29 Sep 2015 07:55:55 +0000 plonkee 1564572@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Poncho looks great. Would also look fab with plum/cranberry skinnies. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-poncho---travel-in-japan#post-1564560 Tue, 29 Sep 2015 06:41:16 +0000 CocoLion 1564560@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wonderful to meet you! &nbsp;The poncho's soft lines and color could not be more perfect given the cherry blossom setting. &nbsp;I also like the way you have coordinated the poncho with gray jeans. &nbsp;I have quite a bit of gray, but I don't think I have worked it with pink (although I have the pieces). &nbsp;You're inspiring me. &nbsp;Which is exactly what's great about WIWs -- not only to I get to know everyone better (picture is worth a thousand words etc), but I also get ideas! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-poncho---travel-in-japan#post-1564551 Tue, 29 Sep 2015 05:47:17 +0000 Carole 1564551@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What gorgeous photos, and what a special trip to see the cherry blossoms! Seems agreat travel piece and I love everything your wearing with it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-poncho---travel-in-japan#post-1564531 Tue, 29 Sep 2015 04:46:20 +0000 JAileen 1564531@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love this - a real life poncho.

I love your poncho - soft colour, perfect length and worn so stylishly! Love the picture of the cherry blossoms.....so pretty! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-poncho---travel-in-japan#post-1564513 Tue, 29 Sep 2015 04:26:03 +0000 Bijou 1564513@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kelly, Sally and Ankita - thank you for your kind words. &nbsp;Being a first time WIW poster, I was a little nervous about what comments I would get. &nbsp;Sally, I think a light poncho would be great for you, as I do wear this at home in the evenings when I want a light layer.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-poncho---travel-in-japan#post-1564480 Tue, 29 Sep 2015 03:41:53 +0000 Ankita 1564480@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look stunning in that color and what a beautiful poncho!<br /> Gorgeous picture of the cherey blossoms at night </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-poncho---travel-in-japan#post-1564479 Tue, 29 Sep 2015 03:40:31 +0000 Sal 1564479@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love your outfit, and I love the picture of the cherry blossoms!!</p> <p>I see no need for improvement at all, and I would think a poncho would actually be good for a pear shape.</p> <p>I have not worn a poncho for a very long time (since I was about 8) - I have been thinking that one could be a good addition for casual layering when travelling, at night when it cools down, and for working at home at my computer. &nbsp;I like that yours is a fine gauge knit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-poncho---travel-in-japan#post-1564477 Tue, 29 Sep 2015 03:38:42 +0000 kellygirl 1564477@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful photo and I love the cherry blossom pink poncho on you. Gorgeous travel outfit!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-poncho---travel-in-japan#post-1564474 Tue, 29 Sep 2015 03:33:26 +0000 Bijou 1564474@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I enjoyed wearing my poncho on a trip to Osaka in April to view the cherry blossoms. &nbsp;My poncho is a soft knitted poncho and was wonderful to have because it took up minimal luggage space and was very useful for the long plane flights to and from Australia and to wear on days when the temperature was a bit cool.</p> <p>Poncho - Jigsaw Australia (also comes in teal and black - and now on sale)<br />Jeans - Frame, Le Skinny in grey<br />3/4 sleeve t-shirt top - Uniqulo<br />Boots - Ecco Abelone (very good for walking)<br />Cap - custom find - bought in Japan (I do look like a typical tourist in this)!</p> <p>Personally I prefer to wear my skinnies with a higher shaft boot to balance out my thighs (being pear shaped) - however as I was travelling, I took only the one pair of boots.</p> <p>I wore my bag on my shoulder underneath the poncho. &nbsp;As my poncho does not come down over my arms too far, I did not find it restrictive or difficult to wear.</p> <p>All comments and tips for improvement are much appreciated. &nbsp;Given I love seeing other's WIW posts, I thought I should also contribute. &nbsp;I had to add the stunning photo of the cherry blossoms at night in the Osaka Castle gardens. We loved this holiday so much, we have booked to go to Tokyo and Kyoto next year!</p>
