Once in a while, there comes a piece of clothing that is destined for greatness because it has been spotted on more than a couple of people who know a thing or two about style.
The poncho is one such garment.
We have to admit, it's a totally unexpected trend considering how it's always been there, teetering at the edges of the fashion industry all these years but not quite embraced into the street-style fold, not quite an "it" item.
We suppose it is sparked by the increasingly popular Burberry monogrammed poncho. In the past few months, many runway front-row staples have been spotted using this color-blocked goodness carrying their initials as if we needed further proof of their identity. Topshop also came up with their own version of a poncho, and that's when we knew it's going to be the next big thing - at least to people who can afford high-street goodies.
The following are just some of the celebrities who were photographed wearing a comfortable-looking poncho:
1. Taylor Swift

The "Shake It Off" singer was probably already feeling the biting cold as she was spotted wearing a checked Topshop poncho over her Halogen cashmere sweater and Hudson skinny jeans in deep jade. She styled with brown Prada calf leather ankle boots and a Topshop chunky cable knit pom scarf.
2. Olivia Palermo

Socialite, fashion maven and blogger Olivia Palermo showcased her Burberry color block check blanket poncho a second time and wore it with a pair of black skinny jeans, a sweater and her pair of Alexander McQueen Suede Embroidered Loafers. She accessorized with her Janessa Leona Vera Fedora Hat and Fendi Leather Peek-a-Boo satchel bag. The first time she wore it, she looked ultra chic in thigh-high boots, shorts and a plaid shirt.
3. Cara Delevingne

The model debuted the Burberry poncho back on the brand's F/W runway so it's just right that she put it to good use off-duty.
4. Suki Waterhouse

Earlier this year, the Love, Rosie actress kept the cold at bay in her monogrammed poncho.
