It is a sickness. I love them. I have to restrain myself from online shopping.

they truley are the best.

So, questions....

what shirt did you decide to wear underneath, since it's too cold for tank top....

and it's a no-no to wear a jacket with, right?

I usually wear a long-sleeve fitted tee.
I love them too- had to restrain myself from buying another one today!!!

jen this is the very question I have when it comes to wearing ponchos. I wore one yesterday with a long sleeved fitted knit top , but was still freezing . I cannot imagine wearing a jacket, can you?

I am challenged fashion-wise, I need help!

Re: I think I may now be a poncho addict ...

I think I would just carry it in a bag to work, then take off my jacket, then put it on like you would a sweater. Is that corny?

I don't think its corny at all! that's what I was thinking of doing tomorrow, since I had no idea how I could wear the ponchos to work. I know that it isn't heavy enough to keep me warm as I walk to work from the train (i have about a 10 block walk) but I still want to wear them as the weather gets colder

Good idea!

I usually wear a fitted long sleeve shirt in the same color (or in a similar color) as the poncho.

Re: I think I may now be a poncho addict ...

I just bought a brown one from old navy- it is a heavier 'outdoor' type with a hood. I also have a lighter one from NY and CO that I got for free with a 75 dollar purchase- it is more of an outfit accesory type- not heavy enough for cooler weather. I love them too!!!! They are addicting

I can't tell you how many compliments I've gotten on it! It's my favorite one (and the cheapest!!!)

OK.....hand it over...slowly.....slowly....now don't stick your fingers in it, you'll cause a rip. That's it.....now...take a deep breath.....it's ok. You can have it back once the urge to buy more is gone.....It'll be alright.
