It's A Wrap! Fabulous Fall Layers

( Via: Sunny Gu )

When it gets below 60, we move out of sweater weather into a different type of layer. Anything you can wrap up in, is always warm and cozy, especially a poncho, cape or wrap. I found myself wearing my own poncho several times this past weekend. They couldn't be easier to wear, and are flattering to most figures. I love their "cover up" factor. If you don't own one, here's inspiration for all budgets.

It's A Wrap: Ponchos & Capes. Fall's Most Versatile Cover Ups

Let's face it, our days of sleeveless arms are numbered. The weather is changing. Time to layer up. A cape or poncho is perfect for layering between seasons. They are both part of the seventies trend this Fall, and I fully embrace the look. If you can only buy one piece this season, pick a poncho or a cape. Here's a selection for all budgets.
