New Year Styled: The Poncho


Welcome back to New Year Styled with my fashion sisters at The Blended Blog.  Thank you to everyone who linked up with us last week!  We keep growing and it's thanks to all of you.

This month, my friends Carrie and Whitney brought back Create28 for a winter 2017 edition. Since I'm shopping my closet and not the stores, I was so excited when they released the prompts.



Hooray, I thought!  I shall follow each day and choose an outfit from my closet.  What a fun way to re-mix and re-think!

And then I spent the next five days in sweats, which might be a new record for me.  And I'm not even sick.  In my defense, I was working on tax prep, doing some major organizing, and there were a few snow days thrown in.  I didn't even leave the house.

I did finally manage to get myself dressed in this cute sweater poncho and Wit & Wisdom jeans. Which kind of felt like sweats, so maybe it doesn't really count.



Anyway, the tax prep is done, the snow is mostly gone, and I'm still on a shopping ban, so I'm ready to try again.  I shall follow each day, and choose an outfit from my closet...

  3. I think those sweater ponchos are the best. They allow for more movement than mine but still LOVE 'em. You look great - all pieces and a look I love!

  6. I really love this outfit! The gray poncho looks almost like a sweater and not huge like some ponchos are! Very cozy and the b/w stripes are an added bonus!

  7. The sweater poncho is gorgeous. It's seriously lacking in my closet. I often play the IG prompts. I may well have a go next week once I'm back into work mode clothes.

    1. It's a fun challenge to try the IG prompts - and it keeps me from shopping!

  8. I like how your outfit really comes together, and the colors work well. I think this is really great idea to do AND saves money! Hugs...

  9. This poncho looks so soft and comfortable. I really like the stripes peeking out and the visual interest they add. I am with you on the no shopping. I cannot think of anything I need, but lots I might like to have...

    1. I think they're my favorite jeans - almost as cozy as leggings! Thank you Shelly!

  14. Once again you have proven that you can rock anything! I have never tried a poncho.. except for the cheap ones you wear not to get wet. Clearly in a different league than this.

    1. Haha - I have a few of those too, since they're needed quite a bit around here. I should do a rain poncho post!

  15. Love the look and your teeth look A-mazing! I haven't gotten to even wear a sweater yet except when we went back to KY. We're in t-shirts down here. It was 72 today and 80 tomorrow. It figures I bought two cute pair of winter boots, but I'm wearing flip-flops!
