We don't need no stinkin' Ponchos

Sunday, July 18, 2004
People who know me can attest I am no fashion diva.  However, working at a university one can usually keep up on some trends.  However, I was completely thrown for a loop when the fashion pages AND several department store ads featured ponchos.  Hello?  How 1972 is this? 
 
I had many a knitted poncho in my childhood.  I hate to think America's youth will be subject to the same.   
 
It does prove that the fashionistas do not have many original thoughts.  And it might just encourage folks to be pack rats if clothing is going to come in style every 30 years.
