Style Dilemma: How Would You Wear a Poncho?

I've had this poncho for a while now but I've never used it. I know that it's summer for a lot of people up North but down here in the Southeast, we're fending off typhoons and rainy weather left and right. Just thought I could finally bust out my poncho, keep myself warm, (successfully man repel!) and add some color to my usual garb while out and about. 

Then it dawned on me, how do you actually wear one? I can't come up with a nice way of putting this on without looking like a tipi or teepee (depends on how you like to spell it.) I'm Olsen petite so I'm not even sure if it'll work at all. 

I would love to hear your thoughts on how you would wear/style one? Or if you would actually wear one at all? :) It's sad when a beautiful garment is left unused to one side so I'm really looking for a way to use this at least once. Lemme know your thoughts and style ideas. Cheers!


ps. If this really won't work out I'm gonna be cutting this up and turning this into a cape of sorts.
