"Beautiful lightweight sweater"
I love the rich color and simple style of this. Fits very well (size medium, 5'51/2", 128 lbs), seems as pictured. Nice for spring and fall (not a heavy or very warm sweater).

"Pretty & Practical"
I usually wear small, but the medium fits nicely (5'6", 122#). It's lightweight but the wool adds nice warmth. For winter, I can wear a light long sleeve tee under it and a jacket over it. As the weather warms up, it will look and feel nice by itself. The photos aren't very helpful--the model's hair and hands hide the nice neckline and pretty detail on the sides at the hem. The sleeve hems are rolled edges which I like. Beautiful color.

"Beautiful violet sweater"
I love the style and color of this sweater. For a cotton/alpaca blend, I find it itchy, though, and have to wear it over a shirt, which is why I am giving it 4 stars. The rolled cuffs and details on the body are cute.

"So pretty and comfy!"
Beautiful comfortable top with such pretty colors. I usually wear just a solid-colored long-sleeved shirt underneath, works for going out and for just lounging around the house. Just FYI the material is fairly stretchy so if you re between sizes (I m usually between M and L myself) I d say size down!

"This is perfect for Californias version of cold weather!"
I bought this beautiful cape (ruana) several months ago, and Ive worn it non-stop! its flattering, very warm, and so easy to wear without having to deal with sleeves. I love it, Ill wear it until its worn out, and Ill buy another one. My favorite article of outdoor clothing for cool weather. It works when Im dressed casually, and when I dress up. Perfect!
