Believe it or not, I was not always a fashionista, lol. I remember playing Barbie’s with my sister. We’d throw all of our Barbie clothes in a pile, and then we’d take turns picking items. The last thing I wanted was a sad, tan poncho. I always tried to pawn it off on my sister! Even back then I wanted a pop of color, lol. Thankfully, my tastes have changed. If you’re looking to add a touch of cozy elegance to your wardrobe, you’ve got to check out these stylish ponchos and capes to wear now! These beauties are perfect for layering over your favorite outfits and will definitely keep you warm as the weather cools down. I’ve picked out a few that are versatile, chic, and oh-so-cozy! Also, Barbie approved!

I love this casual everyday outfit. The only thing I would change is that I would tack the Cable Knit Poncho to create armholes.

I love the cable knit design and the small amount of fringe, but I prefer armholes instead of an open wrap. The Yuletide Tartan Shirt is festive and fun, but the sizes are extremely limited. I paired the shirt and poncho with a light/medium wash pair of barely boot-cut jeans in my usual size.

What Are The Benefits Of Wearing A Poncho or Cape?

Ponchos and capes are must-haves in your closet! These stylish pieces are perfect for layering over jeans, leggings, or a cute pencil skirt.

They’re just the thing for adding warmth without feeling bulky, and some styles even have adorable details like faux fur collars, gold buttons, or hoods for that extra touch of charm. Whether you’re headed out for a casual day, enjoying a cozy evening by the fire, or dressing up for a date night, these versatile pieces have got you covered.

Stylish Ponchos and Capes From Talbots

Leave it to Talbots to bring the charm! The blue geo pattern is very unique. I love that it’s got a turtleneck for added warmth—it’s like a built-in scarf! This one would be a perfect choice for chilly outings, especially if you’re like me and always get cold. You can’t go wrong with a front pouch on a wintry day. This is definitely one of those items you can dress up or down.

I love the plaid and the quilting! It’s like a jacket but cozier and cuter! The hood is such a nice touch, especially on a cold, windy day. This poncho is all about durability and warmth without sacrificing style. You could wear this with a long-sleeved red, black, white or even grey shirt. I’m also a huge fan of things that cover my booty. 🙂

This ruana is named Campfire Plaid, but it doesn’t look like something I’d wear for camping! The pattern is timeless, not to mention gorgeous. It’s a bit longer than your typical poncho, so it really gives that blanket vibe—perfect for wrapping yourself up on a crisp day.

  1. Love all of these! The first photo featuring Miss Tania caught my eye, while searching through photos here, and she is looking absolutely wonderful with the style and colors.

    More info, FWIW — I am not 50 (I wish!). I admit I am a woman in her 60s who, while looking today online for dresses, did very fortunately land at this website! Most grateful for that. 🤗

  9. Lynne Jackson says:

    I just ordered the blue and white poncho from Talbots. Thanks for all of your suggestions and have a great holiday!

  10. I do love a poncho, it’s just hard for me to figure out my handbag situation. I don’t always want to “carry” a purse… maybe it’s just me? Happy Thursday ❤️❤️❤️

  11. I still have my sweater poncho from Macy’s that I bought several years ago. It’s in a petite size which would be hard to find now. I also have a cream sweater cape. You’re right they can be convenient when you just need a little warmth.

  12. I rarely wear a poncho as they are too big for my petite size but some of these look like they would fit petites.

  13. The cross front cream poncho is so elegant looking

  14. Cutest ponchos , went to a cute shop in Red Wing MN & bought 2 cute different things like some of these.

  15. Beautiful selection of capes and ponchos! Thank you for sharing this extra layer of warmth!
