Welcome to Day 25 of my 26 Days of Fall Fashion. One of my favorite fall trends this year is the poncho. I can’t seem to get enough of them.
As soon as our weather cools down (it’s supposed to this week) I’m going to be wearing me some ponchos!
I don’t know about you but Old Navy is always a hit or miss with me. Some of their stuff looks cheaply made but then sometimes I can find some really nice pieces.
This poncho was a keeper and one that will be great for fall and winter. I love the geometric print, I’m seeing a lot of that print this fall too.
I styled it with these cute boots from Glamour Farms. I wasn’t sure if I would like them but I wore them all day yesterday and now I’m hooked. (Use discount code Spivey291 to get $10 off your order from Glamour farms.)
For size reference I’m wearing the XS-Small poncho and it is still plenty big on me. 🙂

Cyndi, I bought this poncho style sweater on Saturday evening. I went to Old Navy bc I got an email saying they had ponchos for $10!!! When I got there, I was informed they had sold out by noon of all $10 ponchos and when I showed her your picture they told me that particular poncho wasn’t part of the $10 promo…so I decided to cruise the store just to see if they had any of this particular one left…they did…2!!! There was a small and a large…the large was enormous on me…I tried on the small and it fit….strange bc I’m not a small at all. Just wanted to let you know you got me to buy something again!!! Thanks for all you do to show us the latest and greatest!!!
I do like all your clothes. Could you style clothes some of the local stores as well, like target, JCP, kohls ? May be topic for next month.
Appreciate .
Thanks.
After reading the comments/reply I see you use the poncho as a sweater-was wondering if that would mess your hair up a lot. I think it would be cute with burgundy or cobalt pants.
so excited I found you on pintrest! I am 49 with two daughters and three grandkids, I wanted a new look for work but didn’t know where to start. I love the look and I am having so much fun shopping. My girls love the new me and have taken some of the outfit ideas for themselves.
God Bless,
Carolyn
I just love the whole look! Love the boots to?
Thank you DeeDee!!
Oooh! You look so cute, Cindy! I love this outfit!
You look so good in so many things and I love sharing your emails with my 4 year old daughter.
“Let’s see what Cindy is wearing today”, I will say to her, and she loves to come and have a look at my iphone.
Doing a great blog!

That is so sweet!! Please give your granddaughter a hug from me!!! 🙂
Blessings,
Cyndi
This outfit is super cute. Do you wear the poncho as outerwear only? If not, don’t you get warm wearing it inside? I want to know because I love the look.
No I treat it like a sweater not as outerwear. I don’t take sweaters off when I go inside so I wouldn’t take this off either.
Hope that helps,
Cyndi
Loft has a Curvy -Skinny , i could not find a Skinny jean till i tried the Loft
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this ENTIRE OUTIT.
1. Are these boots comfortable for all day wear, any bottom foot padding, Brand and
2. Do they run narrow and
3. Is there enough room to wear socks.
I wore these boots shopping all day and they were comfortable BUT they don’t have a lot of foot padding. I don’t think they run narrow at all. I could wear a thin footie with these.
Hope that helps!
Cyndi
Love the geometric prints on the poncho. Very pretty outfit!
Thank you!!
Thanks for your daily fashion inspiration and “Beauty for the Heart”. Love Mother Teresa… so wise!
Thanks Lisa for stopping by!

What body types do you think ponchos work best for? I’m just not sure I can pull it off. I feel like it would make me look bigger since there is no shape to it. Maybe I just haven’t found the right one. I see small and large women wearing them and think they look very nice. Why do I feel frumpy and bulky?
And I totally agree about Old Navy–it’s typically more miss than hit for me.
I love the poncho on you so much that I went over to Old Navy. I have to say, the pic of the model for Old Navy, did not do it justice. It was hanging on you perfectly and it helped to know that you got a size XS. I think we are pretty much the same size on things. The boots are just darling on you and work great with this adorable poncho.
I think the Old Navy model was having a bad day! Ha!
I love poncho’s, too!!! I have one that was my mother’s and it is probably 40 years old and has the aztec print on it but it is acrylic and so warm for the south. The one your are wearing is so cute on you!! Love Mother Teresa!! Have a blessed day!!
Hey, can you tell me exactly which handbag you are carrying? When I look on QVC’s website, I’m overwhelmed with all her choices. I would like to order the exact handbag as it’s so cute!
Hey Jo, this is the exact handbag I am carrying and the color is charcoal.

Such a cute outfit. I love the look of Ponchos, but feel like I am in a straight jacket and I can’t get my arms free. Also, I am always dragging an edge through some type of food when I go to reach or work in the kitchen. Probably reveals some “deep psychological” issue! LOL!
Love them though! Maybe an outside only look for me?
Quick question for you Cyndi…what brand are your “go to” skinny jeans? I am a pear shape and find so many are too big at the waste. I have 2 pair. They are both size 6. (Eddie Baurer and Levi) Levi brand is a better fit.
You seem to wear more Wit and Wisdom. Is that your favorite?
Sally, I’m pear shaped also. I found that if I buy a lower waisted jean, they fit me better. I have Wit and Wisdom, Vince Camuto and some Loft. Good luck!
Yes I love my Wit and Wisdom jeans but LOFT does have great jeans too and I like KUT From the Kloth.
Hope that helps!
Cyndi
Yes! Thank you!
I love ponchos too. In fact I would rather wear a poncho than a jacket/coat. There’s that handbag again that I love. I just took the plunge and ordered it. I hope it’s just as beautiful in person. 😉
I think you’ll love that handbag. It’s really pretty!!
Cyndi, Do the boots have any arch support in them? I love the outfit and especially the poncho. I don’t shop at Old Navy too often because, like you, I’m not always satisfied with the quality.
Have a blessed day!
No Ginger I don’t think they have a lot of arch support. But I did wear them shopping all day and they were comfortable but if you need arch support they might not work.
Cyndi
Thank you! Maybe I can find some similar short boots with good arch support.
It’s good you said that about the sizing, because I think ponchos/capes in particular can usually be sized down. They seems so voluminous otherwise! Great look!! jodie

They are voluminous!! I would definitely size down with ponchos.
I love ponchos too and am chomping at the bit for Fall Temps to allow my indulgence. Old Navy pants are among my favorites, but you are right about hit or miss with other options like tops, dresses and sweaters.
I’m waiting for fall temps too!!! I think they are finally coming this weekend. 🙂
It’s hit or miss for me s well at Old Navy – but this is cute!
Thank you Nikki!!
I love the look of this outfit but what I struggle with is what type of coat to wear over it.
My coats are either waist length and the sweater sticks out making it look ridiculous or just too fancy for a casual look. 🙁
I have this same issue. If I buy a poncho it would have to be one I would be comfortable with a winter coat. But I never know which one or how to wear it that way. I will be watching to see if others give you advice.
Btw, Cyndi you look adorable as always. I love this look on you and I agree with the other person who commented that you styled this poncho much better than they did on the ON website! Great outfit. Love this series and sad to see it ending! thanks for the great ideas ladies.
Hey Teri,
The styles this year are over sized coats which would work. I also think a longer trench coat would look good too.
I could wear this for a while in KY without a coat especially if I’m just outside for a minute. 🙂
Hope that helps!
Cyndi
Love this look! Comfy – cozy!
Thank you Gerri!!
Cyndi
Ooooh, I love a poncho!!
It reminded me of the off white one that you styled and I loved it!!
