To poncho, or not to poncho. A month ago I would have said ‘not’. But after a recent Calypso St. Barth find, I’ve become a believer in the armless, cozy style. And after traveling 12+ hours to Paris in one this week, I can easily say it’s a necessity for any wardrobe. However, proceed with caution. And don’t get crazy with patterns. The reason I always resisted the style was because I kept trying bright colors or loud patterns which left me feeling like the Liberty Bell. Sticking to a basic black and mixing bohemian-esque pieces is what has felt right for me.

P.S. Don’t forget the Isabel Marant x H&M collection launches today! If you’re not near a store you can buy online as well here.
