What I Wore: The Shock & The Awe That Can Eat You Raw

Hey Curvy Chicks!

Hope everyone had a fabulous weekend, I know I did! Today I knew I wanted to wear, shoot and do a review on the reversible poncho my incredibly wonderful friends at IGIGI sent me last month. It is finally getting chilly enough to wear, and I knew that I wanted to rock it out and wear it in an edgy way that in my opinion pretty much defines how I see my personal style. One of the reasons I  love reviewing IGIGI pieces is that they truly challenge me to interpret their timeless and well made classy pieces and turn the volume up a notch with my look to showcase how any woman can interpret her own personal style with IGIGI collections. In the end my look turned out exactly like I had envisioned and I am so incredibly excited to share this look with you today!

Cross Earrings: Rue21/Skull Infinity Scarf: Rue21/Renn Plus Size Reversible Poncho: IGIGI (Gifted 2012)/Sequin Tank Top: SWAK Designs (Gifted 2010)/Studded Corset Belt: Torrid/Grey Leggings:B&Lu (Gifted 2010)/Booties: Torrid (Gifted 2011)

When I saw the Renn Plus Size Reversible Poncho on the IGIGI site I instantly knew that I wanted to add it to my wardrobe and showcase it on my site. Ponchos are always a great fall staple and can get you through months where it is not quite jacket or coat weather but can add a comfy detail to a look that is also trendy and stylish.  This reversible poncho is great either way you wear it with a fabulous and classic print to add texture to a simple and easy look or as I wore it here with the black side up and little peaks of the print of the reversible side showing. For me I knew I wanted to pair this with some other pieces that included different prints and textures and felt that the black side played best with my look. Let me just say this poncho is so well made, just like all IGIGI pieces and is really heavy and warm and honestly perfect for a fall day. I think this poncho could also come in handy in the winter if paired with a long sleeved top and a thick bottom for a layered look. The poncho also comes with a well made thick sash for wrapping and creating a defined waist. The poncho itself has small slits in the front and back to assist with using the sash or other belts but they are nice and small and fairly undetectable if you wanted to wear this poncho open or without any belting. I also loved how easy the reversible zipper made this piece easy to wear and almost effortless to throw on when heading out and conquering the world. I received the Renn Plus Size Reversible Poncho in a size 18/20 and it fits true to size and is a piece I would truly recommend for any curvy girls fall/winter wardrobe!

What are you rockin today?

    You look absolutely stunning in this cape! Great review for it, too. Capes/ponchos are some of my favorite cold weather items. Unfortunately I’m not wearing one today, just jammies. lol

  3. You look fabulous!! I’m loving that cape, and your absolutely amazing pink hair. xo

  4. Hmm it appears like your website ate my first comment (it was
    extremely long) so I guess I’ll just sum it up what I had written and say, I’m thoroughly enjoying your blog.
    I as well am an aspiring blog writer but I’m still new to everything. Do you have any recommendations for novice blog writers? I’d really appreciate it.
