Put A Poncho On It

Hello everyone!!!

This is the second look for Pepper of Pretty Plus Pep and I’s collaboration for the ENTIRE month of November, “Bee and Pep Does Plaid.”

I really like the effortless chic looks that ponchos and capes give simple outfits. I was a little apprehensive about trying them, because I did not want to look bulky with the extra fabric on my shoulders and around waist. To avoid the bulky look, I decided to add a belt! The belt created a nice waist line and improved the overall silhouette of the look.

I wanted the attention to be on the cape so I only added lace up burgundy booties and simple necklace to complete this look.

Style Note: With capes and ponchos, fit is key. I am wearing XL/XXL. I could have sized down if I did not add a belt. Also, this ponch is faux wool, but it did keep me warm.
