We were actually on our way to a festival when I spotted a store called My Big Sister's Closet and asked my husband to pull over. Like a typical woman, I can go into a shop and browse without any intention of buying.
But then I saw this little baby.
A combination of rayon (which is one of my favorite fabrics--I love the way it touches you) and polyester, this is perfect paired with a black skirt or black dress pants. I already wore it with boots, but as my great friend & fellow author Phyllis Bourne suggested, it would be perfect with a slinky pair of heels, too! Plus, you gotta love something with sequins. I love the poncho's flair for drama, its daring blend of colors, and the fact that it looks like something an actress would wear onto the Broadway stage or a fairytale character would wear while traipsing through a magical forest. Besides, who says 50+ women can't be blingy?
And it was a steal for under $20.
If you've got a My Big Sister's Closet by you, drop in and have a look around. You might just find something that will make a statement about you, too.
What a fabulous piece!
ReplyDeleteEvery time you look at it, you come up with a new cute way to wear it. Looking forward to seeing photos of you wearing it.
