i read the 'yay or nay' thread when i did a search for ponchos but i was really looking for some ideas on where to get them? i want a less 'see through' looking one if you know what i mean, not the crochet style or like the one shown in the picture in the yay or nay thread, i want one thats not got the 'holes' 
i seen a girl the other day with a read one like this and it was lovely, if i wouldve been brave enough i would've asked her where she got it 
not sure if anyone will have a clue what im on about but if you do and you know where i could get one then please reply
thanks muchly xx

i think they look nice on the right person.
nah, I saw it in the other thread, I know what they look like, just wondering if you also call those poncho's. (though i'd more than likely wear my version of the poncho than yours
No. That's a dork in a rain mac
that made me laugh out loud
Half the fun is getting wet though.
Not when it's freezing cold
True.
Actually I take that back.
I'm more likely to be something like that at the end of the day so I don't have to walk around in wet clothes.
Plus I can't swim.
My friend once did the ponco look to a gig-very successfully. There are some nice ones out there but I've seen some on a few ladies and they don't look nice at all. Makle sure you have an honest mate shop with you!
No like?
u can get ponchos in topshop + new look. i think top shops r more like michelle from big brothers tho,while topshops r more kinda 'light' + thin,if u'no wot i mean?
Hmmmmm... :chin:
This look doesn't really gel with me cuz the khaki (?) ones at the top aren't bad but I've only ever seen them on my ex's mum so :crazyeyes:
However, the lady on the 2nd row with the red ones looking like she's spiderwoman...ACK no way!
Besides - how is a guy ment to get his arms round a poncho wearing lady cus the fabric under arm would cause drifting hand restriction
No, I agree with you. The only person who should ever wear a poncho is Clint Eastwood.
Ohhh, ok. Its ok up here, nice clothes :yes:

but today i saw a girl wearing a black lacy-type crochet one over a bright pink vest, jeans and plain flip-flops, and despite my usual feelings, i thought she looked rather cool.
so am now undecided. am immenseley put off by the tassels though. tassels should be reserved for cowboys and strippers.
any ideas where i could get a black crochet poncho with no tassels for pretty damn cheap?
thin ponchos in topshop but they have tassles,although they're easy enough to cut off. new look sell wooly ponchoes,as do per una due @ M+S. my bessie says u can get them in urban outfitters too.
anyone know where that's from, from my awful description, or where i could find a similar one?
i went out the other day and there were this pair of (what looked like) nine year old girls wearing matching ponchos etc and i was just like :eek: :crazyeyes :eek2: all at the same time.
some people can look really good in them, as i am not one of those ima say they are nasssty
i found it, btw. it was from new look, and it's amazing. none of this stops half way down your arms, looks like you're wearing a baby blanket business. it's very cool.
