"Versatile, soft and a winter staple"

This is beautiful--the photos cannot bring out the richness of the colors. This poncho is great with leggings or jeans. Easy to wear, can dress it up or down.

"Feminine AND modest!"

Beautiful and well made, this poncho is light, airy and surprisingly warm! It provides a lot of coverage, but is still sleek and very elegant. I have it layered over leggings and a long sleeved athletic shirt… I can take it off, change my shoes and hit the gym. There are so many colours in this poncho; it creates a lot of mix and match options. It s a fantastic wardrobe piece and looks great on many different body types. I wish there were other colour combinations available!

"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!
