It's one of the items that define the season: a cape. Ever since she saw them on the runways last February, Girlawhirl knew that her ponchos from seasons past just wouldn't cut it this fall and she'd have to find a cape. So far she's still searching for “the one.” But with a chill in the air, she knows she'll have to make her decision fast, because not only are they flying off the store shelves, but she doesn't want to miss her opportunity to incorporate this versatile piece into her wardrobe… • The perfect combination of a sweater and a shawl, this chunky capelet from Echo keeps the early fall chill at bay. The textured stitch, super-sized cowl and grey color make it so right on that Girlawhirl can't help but love it.

• This one has a little more structure and shape, which is nice because it accentuates Girlawhirl's waist, streamlining her silhouette. She loves the idea of a plaid, because when she's buying into a trendy piece, she's happy to incorporate as much fashion as possible.

• Nothing's more cozy than an elongated, oversized hoodie. And this one, with its deep center pocket is perfect to snuggle up in. The banded bottom helps to define Girlawhirl's shape too.

• Girlawhirl can throw this tiered beauty from Marc by Marc Jacobs over almost anything, from a slim sheath dress for work to a pair of jeans and boots on the weekends. It's so much better than a basic, with its mix of stitches that create a full ruffled effect.

• Girlawhirl knows this one's a splurge, but still, she can't stop thinking about Stella McCartney's Cape. With its oversized plaid it's unbelievably chic and its understated appeal will last far longer than the current craze for capes.
