Scarf poncho
If you are tired of traditional jackets and jackets and you do not know how to diversify your wardrobe, then a poncho scarf will be an original solution. This item, worn over a regular turtleneck or pullover, can instantly transform your look, adding an elegant charm and a touch of romance.
Peculiarities
A poncho scarf is a cross between a classic poncho, cape and scarf. This cozy thing can be worn in the office or for a walk.
As a rule, this wardrobe item is made of warm and durable fabric, knitted options are especially popular. A poncho scarf is appropriate for any season. A thin summer model will look beautiful over a dress or turtleneck on a cool evening. In the fall and spring, some models look beautiful when worn over a thin coat. In winter, a short, sophisticated poncho can be worn under outerwear.
By the way, for the cold season it is worth choosing a model of warm deep tones: burgundy, brown. If you plan to wear this accessory often, choose the option that contains synthetics: such a scarf drapes beautifully, does not wrinkle, and is easy to wash. This comfortable piece is suitable for women of all ages and sizes.
A poncho scarf can be independently transformed from a regular stole. It is enough to throw it over your shoulders and tie it with a beautiful knot on your chest. By the way, sometimes manufacturers deliberately leave small cuts on the stoles, which allows you to remake the cape into a poncho.
If you show a little imagination, then you can make yourself a spectacular accessory from two long and wide scarves: draped with knots in the front and back, or on the sides.
A wardrobe item such as a large square plaid scarf can also be transformed into a fashionable poncho scarf: fold it in a triangle, throw it over your shoulders and fix it with a belt. You will create a stylish casual look.
Models
The poncho scarf has various modifications. A popular option is in the form of a cape, with its help you can warm or stylishly drape shoulders and chest. Usually such a thing is worn on top of any tight-fitting clothing. In fact, this is a short rectangular or oval canvas with a cutout for the head, it can be round or triangular. There is also a collar "yoke" or a high neckline that fits the throat.
A simple and interesting design solution is a cape-shaped poncho with a front slit. To do this, just throw a wide scarf over your shoulders and fix its edges on the side - you get a kind of sleeves.
A cape poncho can have sleeves: for this, it is enough to fasten the edges at the bottom with a few stitches. The product can be made of jersey or fleece. As always, knitted items look charming, especially if they are hand-knitted: luxurious braids or an original diamond pattern will make your look unforgettable. Capes decorated with fringes have a stylish look.
A short poncho scarf can also look like a short knitted sweater (slightly covering the chest), with a high collar and full sleeves.
With what and how to wear?
A poncho scarf, in principle, can act as an alternative to a traditional jacket or cardigan. It should be worn on tight-fitting things: turtlenecks, thin pullovers and sweaters. Ponchos with a slit look harmoniously with shirts.
For the bottom of the clothes, you should choose jeans, tight-fitting trousers or a tight, medium-length skirt. For slender legs, a good option is shorts with tights.
A beautiful combination - a straight, tight-fitting warm dress of any length and a short knitted poncho.
A bag with a long handle will harmoniously complement the image (another option will deform the silhouette of a poncho). A hat with wide brims will look extravagant, but interesting.
Of the jewelry, wide bracelets are suitable for the created ensemble; the poncho itself, the scarf, can be decorated with a spectacular brooch.
As for shoes, the best choice for this type of poncho is high over the knee boots, especially if you combine it with a mini dress or shorts. With jeans or trousers, it is quite possible to wear ankle boots, Cossacks or rough boots.
In addition, you can tie a poncho in the form of a scarf in different ways. You can wrap it around your shoulders and chest several times, and tie the ends with a spectacular knot, or hide it. Another option is to combine a wide scarf with a belt. There are two ways here: just fix the canvas on top with a strap, or tie a belt at the waist, cover it with a scarf at the back, and tuck the front part into the belt (you get something like a spacious vest).
