I’ve decided that I can blame precisely 30% of my new purchases on Marlien Rentmeester. This plaid poncho is one such example…which I began stalking shortly after she shared it on her site. So when it went on sale + an extra 40% off a couple weeks ago, I couldn’t resist snatching it up. I love that it’s completely different from anything else in my closet – with bright colors, a cozy feel & unique shape. (Tip: The key to pulling off an oversized topper like this is to balance out proportions with slim pieces on your bottom half, so you don’t appear bulky all over.)
What I’m wearing:
Kate Spade Saturday Poncho, Gap turtleneck (similar here or here), c/o Old Navy Jeans (on sale + extra 20% off w/ code TAKE20), Joe Fresh boots (similar here & here), c/o Angela + Roi bag (similar), Bracelets: Vintage (similar),
J. Crew (similar here or here), Rings: Forever 21 (similar) & Ann Taylor (similar), Nails: Dior Purple Mix,
