Every time I see a poncho in a store or on a woman on the street, I think to myself, "I really want a poncho." But then I get nervous that I'm not glam or tall or whatever enough to pull one off.

That all ends today, though. The point of a poncho is that it's universally flattering so no matter your height or body type, it'll look good on you. So to encourage you to embrace one of fall's biggest, coolest trends, here are a bunch of amazing poncho outfit ideas to pin and copy during fall and winter.
