Poncho Love



When I was about 10 years old, my grandparents went on a trip to Spain and brought back a beautiful necklace for me and a poncho for my younger sister. I remember thinking she was so lucky to have such a fun and unique piece of clothing. The poncho trend has come and gone over the years and I'm so happy it's back! 

 Why is this simple piece of cloth so popular? Ponchos are easy to wear, they go with everything and are one size fits all. They are cozy and more fun than your traditional sweater and are the perfect layering piece for all of your fall and winter looks. 
Styling Tip: Cross-body and shoulder bags wont' work with a poncho. Pair it with a clutch or tote instead.

Angela is an expat currently living in Modena, Italy and in addition to her amazing style, you'll read about her fun adventures abroad!
