Friday's Feature: Scarves & Ponchos

As much as I feel like Sunday night comes too soon, I always feel like it's Friday morning and the weekend is upon us (not complaining) but cheers to another weekend on the horizon!  I'm thrilled that another weekend spent at home is ahead for the weekend plans - a great mix of family, friends, football and downtime.  I'm also happy that the temperatures this week warmed up to what fall should be - I'm most definitely not ready for the winter season.

When I did my closet switch this season I realized that I had plenty of the generic one color scarves but like most things last fall, I didn't find the time to keep up with my scarf assortment.  I took some time earlier to search for my favorite patterns and finally jumped on board with one of the hottest trends… ponchos!  It took some time but I finally found a couple that didn't look too huge and boxy.  See my favorites below…

Feature:

one // two // three // four // five //  six (50% off) // seven // eight


one (on sale right now!) // two // three // four // five // six

Other Happenings:

+ I finished Friday Night Lights earlier this week and have no idea what to do with my free TV time.  Any ideas on what to watch now?? 

+ Now begins the weekly "Countdown to Christmas" - Nine weeks until Christmas.  NINE. I'm already way into my christmas planning/list making/activity details/etc.  In fact, Derek and I were Christmas shopping last night - Tis the season.

Cheers to the Weekend!

Linking up today with the Friday linkups -

  5. I seriously cannot believe it is nine weeks to Christmas!! Also I love all of those scarves! I realized the other day that while I have a ton of scarves I only wear like four of them, so it's definitely time to invest in some more :)

  7. I saw a few of those scarves at Nordstrom the other day, they are really cute. :-) I hear ya on the poncho thing too!! I'm petite and a lot of them swallowed me up. Or made me look like a hobbit... haha. It really depends on how tall you are and your body type. They can definitely be too long or boxy. I think that any of those ponchos that you have in your pictures would look great on you and they're all so cute!! :-) Have a wonderful weekend!!

  11. Nine weeks until Christmas - better start shopping :) My parents are driving down for Thanksgiving, so my goal is to get all the presents wrapped up with them so we don't have to bring anything on the plane! Now shopping for myself, LOVE the J Crew honeycomb scarf and that Old Navy poncho!

  12. Loving the scarf picks! We had one day down here where it was true scarf weather, and then back up to 80 degrees. I can't wait to finally bundle up.

  13. I just got my first scarf with a pattern on it for my birthday and I am loving it but I also feel like it restricts what I can wear it with that is why I am more of a solid color girl

    I cannot believe there are 9 weeks till Christmas - I always say I am going to start my shopping earlier so that I am not doing it two weeks before. Maybe your countdown will help me!

  14. I really need one of those [laid blanket scarves, LOVE them! I have started Christmas shopping also, love this time of year!!

  15. Those scarves are so pretty, especially the last one that's a maroon plaid! Friday Night Lights is on my list to watch, whenever I have the time. If you're a Gilmore Girls fan you could always start watching it again in order to get prepared for the new mini series!

  16. Those scarves are gorgeous! NYC weather is so crazy! Last week there were snow flurries and I was freezing my butt off and today it is 70 and Sunny. Mother Nature is schizo this year!

  18. Love plaid scarves - they're basically my favorite for fall and winter :) It took a little bit, but I'm on board with the poncho trend but with the open front ponchos. They look so cozy for cool weather! Have a fun weekend - sounds relaxing!

  19. My husband and I sat down last night and made out our Christmas budget and set a goal of having everything purchased by December 12th this year! I even added a few things to my wishlist and there were a couple of scarves on there! I love all the ones you shared and might have to go back and add a couple of more to my list!

    Have a good weekend! :)

  20. I had no idea you were watching FNL! Did you love it? One of my favorite shows that I've ever binge-watched. Um, I can't believe it's only nine weeks until Christmas. Yikes ... my mom are kicking off that season in a couple weeks, though. :) Love all the plaid and ponchos in this post! Happy weekend!

  21. I've been waiting for that BP Autumn plaid scarf to come back in stock - it will be mine!! Yay! And I'm telling you - Parenthood! It's soooo good! Or The Good Wife or Breaking Bad!

  22. Girl! PARENTHOOD!! It is seriously my second favorite show of all time. (Nothing will ever beat Friends!) We're just starting the 4th season and it is amazing. You will feel all the emotions in every episode. I cannot stress how good it is!

  23. I love every single one of the scarves you picked, but the last one is really calling to me! Haha. Hope you have a wonderful weekend. :)

  24. I love scarf number six! I was just looking at it earlier today! I also love the second poncho in the other color. It's on my wish list. Annd I have poncho number for from last year in gray. So warm and cozy and cute!

  25. I'm really wanting a plaid scarf this year. I keep talking about it but haven't done it. Love that first one!

  26. I love ponchos but sometimes feel like they make me look wide and boxy. If I find one that fits good I always scoop it up!! It isn't quite cool enough for scarves in NC yet but I cannot wait for that weather! Xoxox

  27. The ponchos look so comfortable! I might just need to get another one!
