BITTER SPRING

3-26-10 1

Finally!  My first Mailbox Mavens post!

Jade sent me this awesome poncho just as the weather warmed up.  But, being spring in central Pennsylvania, that kind of weather doesn't stick this early in the season.  So, naturally, today it is a little bitey.  And windy to boot!

I probably could have used another layer, but I'm a survivor.  And I love this poncho way too much to cover it up!  I did get to wear it one other time, but didn't get picture because it was raining.  Let me tell you - this is the perfect thing to wear to the movies.  It's like taking a blanket, since the theater is always freezing.  And you can sneak all sort of treats in underneath it!

You can see how Jade wore it here.  I simply adore her look!

    Love the treat-sneaking poncho....
    And that necklace always brings sighs of jealousy.

    I love that poncho. It's way more stylish than bringing a snuggie to the movies. Not that I've ever done that, but I have considered . . . it really is freezing in there!

    I just showed your pictures to my son. Because this past week I took pictures of me in my wrap, but alas mine just hangs there. You photos are awesome. You have movement. We've decided not to post mine. We need to do a retake LOL!

    Love the movement here and of course your style!

    Is that a mesh necklace? I love how it flashes under the poncho. You look unbelievably comfortable!

    Um yeah, I have no idea how you pull everything off. I would look ridiculous in a poncho, but you make it look amazing. Love the color red on you, too.
