Poncho style cardigan


The simplest and most common way to style a poncho cardigan is by wearing it over pants. But today I wanted to look more feminine and so I chose to combine it with a knitted dress instead. The cardigan's print reminds me of winter: besides the obvious deer and snowflakes, the horizontal patterns to me look like those that appear on windows after a frosty night.


Can't say it is the most comfortable thing to wear on a windy day, the cardigan then becomes a rather decorative item then actually warming. Luckily, windy days are really rare in Kathmandu.


The earrings remind me of snowflakes too so I added them to the look. They are quite a statement thing, aren't they? In spite of their largeness the earrings are very light.

Poncho style cardigan, earrings, boots - local market, knitted dress - Wallis, tights - bought in Belarus

Have a nice day!

You have combined your poncho cardigan really lovely with that dress. Tights are great as well, especially the pattern is also somewhat like frost on the windows :) great look! I never know how to wear those type of poncho cardigans although I love patterns on them!

  4. What an elegant outfit, Olga! I think that's how to do monochrome and make it interesting - add texture, pattern and detail. xxx

  6. You know I noticed the earrings right away! They are really such a nice statement ones and they match the winter theme of this look quite nicely. Opting for something other than pants to wear with this poncho was a great idea. You look very lady like...and absolutely beautiful!

  12. I know what you mean. I wear my ponchos over jeans, but you have inspired me to wear my newly purchased one over a long skirt for a more feminine vibe. A great find!

  13. WOW! (I say that more often here than anywhere else ...) What a beautiful outfit. Lovely top, and better still with your styling. The hosiery is genius. You really know your signature style well, and just how to put your pieces together. Time to write a book, Olga.

  16. Knitting allows us to express ourselves creatively, and your post takes it to a whole new level. Fringe-tastic ponchos are a fantastic canvas to display both craftsmanship and style.
