The ‘Drug Rug’ Gets A Makeover: A Case For The New And Improved Poncho

November 30, 2010 by Justine Schwartz

 

Ponchos – or “drug rugs” as they are lovingly known – are officially back. First, Tory Burch featured a Cheech & Chong-approved Baja Hoodie in her Spring 2011 show, and now stylish celebs from Kim Kardashian, Kate Hudson and Jessica Simpson are loving them. If you still need to be convinced, ponchos 1) work on all body types and, 2) are as suitable for the airport (a la Kim and Jessica) as they are for the red carpet (Kate wore hers to the premiere). Plus, they “hide all sins” and are totally warm. Try the look:
