Hmmm... I didn't vote, because none of the options really fit my opinion.
I don't think ponchos would look good on me, for sure, but there are some people that odd things look amazing on. This DOESN'T include supermodels... I think they look bizarre in most things.
I think that people who have, say, a 'quirky' sense of style could pull off ponchos -- and not just because they're suddenly fashionable.

I'm kind of inbetween as well. There are nice lightweight ones with a good drape, esp if they are not tightly knit..
I think some look good when they are cut assymetrical(sp?) I reaally hate the ones that have the hem cut straight across your hips, hiding your arms and waist - thus the tent effect.
I have only one, but the hem comes to a point in front of my hips, and the neckline is large and exposes a shoulder. So you can still see a lot of arm on one side, and my waistline is visible (very important!). It's a neutral dove grey and looks amazing with my Sevens and Fryes.
If it circles when you twirl, then you have too much fabric up top. If you're petite, don't attempt. And stay away from busy knits patterns and colors.

I give it a DO -- not all the time but sometimes...
I have a great knitted one, very elegant, that I wear in the winter time, it's a off white creme color...gorgeous with jeans or dress pants and boots.

i like them... i think they got too trendy and that kinda pissed me off, but they look good on some people... as long as they arent super thick and bright ass colors.. i have a black on and a brown one... it works for me (i think LOL)... but i can def. see how someone would look wierd in them..
