Well, here it is! The third Thursday of the month and it’s Ageless Style time. We are sharing and linking up our wraps and ponchos this month. I hope you’ll stop by and see what each of these ladies is sharing on their blogs today.
I have sat on the sidelines for a few years watching so many lovely ladies wear their gorgeous wraps and ponchos. I have thought I would would love to have the perfect wrap, but one has always escaped me. I did, however, find a little wrap a year or so ago that was on a massive clearance sale at J. Crew Factory. I think I might have snagged free shipping that day too.
I might add, I’m a sucker for plaid too, so this was a win-win for both categories. But then, I quickly realized ponchos and wraps might be fabulous for others and not for me. It’s one of those things where I love the idea, but it’s better in my head than on paper or in this case on me.
I haven’t parted with this little plaid number, but I did try to sell it once at a Clothes Mentor. They returned it to me. It is still sitting my closet and wondering how I might try to wear it again one day. Such is the life of wannabee styling gal.
I hope to see some gorgeous inspiration with everyone’s capes and/or ponchos. Link them up, my friends!
Blessings, Carrie

Wow! I am in love with your plaid wrap!
You look fantastic wearing it.
I love having a wrap such as yours when on road trips.
So perfect for keeping warm when riding as a passenger.

I think it looks fabulous! That colors and pattern are so versatile.

What?? It’s so beautiful Carrie. You wore it perfectly in these photos. If you hate how it moves around, then pin it as Lesley usually does!! It’s basically a winter kimono and I think it’s amazing,
XOXO

I have a similar poncho in different colors and I have found it looks great over a dress too. I really enjoy it as it is like wearing a stylish blanket.

I love your wrap. The plaid and colors are perfect for fall/winter.

I struggle to wear ponchos and capes, too. I can take out a whole aisle in the grocery store when I move my arms inside a poncho. Those winged ‘sleeves’ are deadly on me!!
I love your piece and think maybe you could pin it and wear it as a wrap that you remove, like a coat, when you get where you are going. The colors are so pretty and I love plaid, too!! Don’t part with it yet!!

I think it’s lovely!
