So.. The low temperatures have finally hit us. I’ve been housesitting for my son for the past week in Essex while he sun’s himself in Costa Rica. I was mighty pleased that I packed this poncho to wear. The timing couldn’t be more perfect.
This Burgundy and Cream Poncho from Woolovers is so thick and warm, even in the minus temperature and the wind doesn’t penetrate at all. Pure cosiness!
I am trying to get a sophisticated shot of me in this much-needed hat! The flurries of snow are starting to fall. Me and hat’s just don’t get on. I wish we did, I’ve yet to find the perfect one.
This is my third item to review for Woolovers and I can honestly say this is a website that you must visit. The quality is exceptional and each item I have tried I have loved. There is so much choice and every blend of wool is available.
I have chosen to wear the Poncho with my faux leather trousers (there’s an extra layer in the form of tights underneath!) and a contrasting Berry coloured polo neck. Brown boots and a sad attempt with this Black felt hat!
If you really like this Poncho, your luck’s in! It’s now in sale at £30.00 I have to say that’s a bargain for this. It’s really weighty and you know you’re wearing a good warm piece of outerwear. You can find it here
I will be sharing all three of my looks from Woolovers So I hope you pop by for that.

It looks great – but for me the real post-stealer are your trousers, love them. Thanks for sharing with #PoCoLo
Very pretty color poncho and I think it is perfect with your faux leather pants. Great photos, Laurie! Thanks so much for linking up with Fabulous Friday!
Thank you Bev x
Love this poncho, just wish that we would get cold enough in southern Florida to wear them.
Thanks for sharing at Over The Moon Party,

A lovely look, those jumper tops are everywhere right now and look so stylish #sharethejoy
This one is super warm! Thank you x
Please don't take offence, but I would much rather be sunning myself in Costa Rica than house sitting in Essex! Your son is very lucky. The outfit looks great though. On the bright side, wool like that would not be suitable for Costa Rica. Pen x #sharethejoylinky (PS. sorry, wrong hashtag before).
Oh wouldn't I so much prefer that! I had to take my two dogs and the son has three. I was just a glorified Kennel maid! What we do for our kids huh? Thank you for stopping by x
Love this outfit Laurie, the poncho and those waxed jeans are fabulous in berry shades.
thanks for linking!

Thank you Jess. The berry shades are my favourite for this winter xx
Love this look, these colours are my fav and colours I would choose myself! #sharethejoy
Thank you Lizzie. The trousers were a bargain from F&F and the Poncho is on special offer xx
Really like this poncho, it looks warm, cozy and fashionable. My favorite picture is the one of you in the chair, it looks like a magazine shot. I must state that you look great in shades of purple, looks great with your skin and hair color. And although you may not feel that the hat is right for you it is a great piece to have in a photo! LOL
Thank you Nikki. Think of it more as a prop lol x Have a great week my friend
Wonderful sweater! I love the shape and color and you look fab, xo

Thank you Emma. I can't get used to the hat! x
Great outfit! I have always thought that a poncho were not thick enough for winter wind. Perfect combination with the weather and trousers.
Have a nice day…
Glad you like it Dan. Wondering what your weather is like at the mo? This Poncho is as warm as a heavy jacket xx
I've been searching everywhere for one of these – looks lovely and warm! #ukbloggerclub

I love it and to be honest its rare for me to like a poncho but it looks very cosy great find and wow great price bloggerclubuk
Thank you! I too am not a huge lover of Ponchos either. Being short, they normally drown me. How thick and cosy this is won me over! Thank you for stopping by xx

Lucky son being away but you do look very snuggly! Poncho is lovely and really stylish. can't believe you have tights under those trousers too. It really has been cold and wet here 🙁 Thanks for sharing with #bestandworst xx

Love your trousers! Great color! I ll bet that poncho is nice warm. It s so awfully cold here in the Netherlands! I think you have the same weather!
Thank you Nancy. We are into our second week of frost. It did try to snow when I was in Essex, but it didn't mount to much. I hope you too are staying warm Nancy. A cold must be bad for you xx
It's a gorgeous and flattering look. I think Woolovers have an outlet near me. I really should visit. I love that purple.
Thank you Anna. Thanks for stopping by! The Poncho is now at just £30.00 I think that's a bargain. I'm pretty sure they will be starting a knock down price sale in the next couple of days too.x
It not only looks super cozy but super chic as well.
