"Lovely practical wrap"
This is a beautifully made ruana that is perfect for wrapping yourself up in to read a book, watch a movie or browse the internet. I've also thrown it over my casual wear to take the dogs for hike or just go out and get the mail on a cold day. It has an almost medieval monastic quality that I really like as I'm not a flashy dresser.

"Love Love Love This"
One of the best items I have ever purchased anywhere - a signature piece of clothing. Surprisingly lightweight, warm, versatile; dramatic but not pretentious. I'm 5'10" and wear an XL t-shirt and it completely envelops me, yet it also looks great on smaller friends. It is long enough to double as a blanket in a pinch. Because the quality is so nice and because I smoke cigarettes, I was afraid to wear it for several months, thinking I would just wear it for special occasions, but once I started wearing it, I never stopped. It does not absorb odors very much and does not have to be washed frequently. This would be a great item to carry while traveling. I carry it everywhere I go - it folds up small enough to do that. If I could afford it, everyone I love would own one of these beautiful wraps! Thank you for your craftsmanship!

"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!
