From our friends at thefind.com:
Given this upcoming winter season’s obsession with voluminous outerwear and cozy over-sized sweaters, I can’t decide if the reigning attitude towards sleeves is that they’re overrated, or need to be as big and flowy (and comfy!) as possible. Either way, despite what you may have learned in the past about avoiding shapeless pieces, it’s time to finally embrace the ultra-comfortable with cable-knit ponchos that are ready to take any of your fall-ready outfits and transition them for a toasty winter – just by throwing on one of these cozy outer layers. The beauty of the poncho is that its chunky knit keeps you warm and has that comforting sense of familiarity, but it somehow seems to exude a sort of effortless edginess and fashion-forwardness that just doesn’t come across with a more structured blazer or classic cardigan sweater. Top off a sleek dress and tights with a poncho for the ultimate way to warm up your walk outdoors, or throw on over a pair of leggings and riding boots for a casual-cool look for any day!
