{What I Wore} In The Grey Felt of Fall

Hey Fabs!
I have had the color grey seriously on the brain for a while now.  I spotted this fabulous Cynthia Rowley poncho at TJ Maxx a few weeks back and couldn’t wait for it to be cool enough to wear it. And BONUS, it has faux leather darts at the neckline! Seriously, this piece was made for me & my style.

This is actually my second time rocking it, as I wore it a couple of weeks ago while out enjoying a Sunday afternoon. I rarely wear my ponchos or capes loose. I am usually running around so much, that belting them is the only way to go for me, so that I am not fighting against the wind to keep them on.

This poncho is insanely warm & perfect for layering so both times that I have worn it, I have worn my my faux leather mixed media jacket (that I purchased from my Gwynnie Bee closet because I LOVED it so much and didn’t want to give it back) under it so that my arms are completely covered & my leather tech gloves (it’s a godsend to not have to remove your gloves to use your phone).


Adding a grey version to my ever growing collection of hats was high on my list, so this felt fedora, from Lane Bryant was a great find. It’s of course stylish but even more importantly, it fits my nugget LOL…sigh. The large head struggle is real…

And I don’t recall where I got my high waist leggings (similar) from but they are awesome. I love the coverage and that I don’t have to worry about adjusting them all the time. And this Kate Spade tote bag has been in high rotation. It is the perfect size to easily slip over your shoulder and it holds quite a bit, which is a major plus for me.

What say you? Are you rockin’ lots of grey this Fall?
